Pattern provides minimal security, although it can be more conve­nient than the stronger options.

Protecting Your Phone With Encryption

You can encrypt all the data on your phone: Google Accounts, application data, music and other media, downloaded information, and so on. If you do, you must enter a numeric PIN or password each time you power on your phone. WARNING! Encryption is irreversible. The only way to revert to an unencrypt­ed phone is to perform a factory data reset, which erases all your data. Encryption provides additional protection in case your phone is stolen, and may be required or recommended in some organizations. Consult your sys­tem administrator before turning it on. In many cases the PIN or password you set for encryption is controlled by the system administrator. Before turning on encryption, prepare as follows:
1. Set a lock screen PIN or password.
2. Charge the battery.
3. Keep the phone connected to the charger.
4. Schedule an hour or more for the encryption process: you must not inter-
rupt it or you will lose some or all of your data.
17
When you're ready to turn on encryption:
1. Touch
2. Read the information about encryption carefully. The Encrypt phone button is dimmed if your battery's not charged or your
phone's not plugged in. If you change your mind about encrypting your phone, touch WARNING! If you interrupt the encryption process, you will lose data.
3. Touch Encrypt phone.
4. Enter your lock screen PIN or password and touch Next.
5. Touch Encrypt phone again. The encryption process starts and displays its progress. Encryption can take an hour or more, during which time your phone may restart several times. When encryption is completed, you're prompted to enter your PIN or pass­word. Subsequently, you must enter your PIN or password each time you power on
