How to Use USBKey Authentication in Windows Encrypted Client - AnySecura Manual

This guide will help you securely access your system using a physical USBKey with the AnySecura Windows Encrypted Client. You'll learn how to log in, manage your password, and configure convenient options like auto-login for a seamless start.

Once you're familiar with the login process, you can explore how to check your USBKey's details and import new license files. This ensures your key's permissions are always up to date, keeping your access both secure and fully functional.


22.22.1 USBKey Authentication Login

After inserting the encryption USBKey, the client automatically opens the USBKey login window. The login dialog includes the following elements:

Field Description
Device The encryption USBKey device to log in.
Password Default password is 123456. After logging in, the password can be changed via Right-click client encryption icon → USBKey Management → Change Login Password.
Remember Password If checked, the password will be remembered for future USBKey logins. After logging in, you can clear the remembered password via Right-click client encryption icon → USBKey Management → Clear Remembered Password; the next login will require entering the password.
Auto Login If checked, the next USBKey login will use the previous password automatically. Clearing the remembered password will disable auto login for the next session.

After USBKey login, the client's permissions combine its own permissions with those granted by the USBKey. To log out of USBKey authentication, right-click the client encryption icon and select USBKey Management → Logout USBKey Authentication. After logout, the client loses the permissions provided by the USBKey.

Right-click the client icon in the system tray and select "Import USBKey License File". Choose a USBKey license file generated by the console to update the local USBKey database.
