Device security
Making sure your device is protected
Your device includes security options, strongly recommended in case of loss or
theft:
Set a secure screen lock on your device using a PIN, password or pattern to prevent
anyone from accessing or resetting your device.
Add a Google™ account to prevent others from using your device if it gets stolen
or wiped.
Activate the Android™ Device Manager web service. Using this service, you can
remotely locate, lock or clear a lost device.
Verifying the ownership of your device
Certain protection features require you to either unlock your screen with your PIN,
password, pattern, or enter your Google™ account information. Below are
examples of protection features and their required credentials:
Factory Data Reset
protection
You must unlock your screen before you are allowed to perform
a Factory Data Reset.
Android™ Device
Manager
If you remotely reset your device using this service, you must
enter the username and password for a Google account. The
device must be connected to the internet before the setup
process can be completed. Otherwise, you will not be able to use
your device after the reset.
Xperia™
Companion
software repair
You must enter your Google account username and password
when you start the device after the repair is complete.
For Android Device Manager, it is necessary to enter information from a Google account.
This can be any Google account which you have set up on the device as an owner. If you
cannot provide the relevant account information during a setup process, you won't be able
to use the device at all.
Screen lock
Fingerprint functionality is not available in the US market.
There are several screen lock options available. The security level of each lock type
is listed below in order of weakest to strongest:
Swipe: no protection, but you have quick access to the Home screen.
Pattern: draw a simple pattern with your finger to unlock your device.
PIN: enter a numeric PIN of at least four digits to unlock your device.
Password: enter an alpha-numeric password to unlock your device.
Fingerprint: place your registered finger on the power key to unlock your device.
It is very important that you remember your screen lock pattern, PIN or password.
If you forget this information, it may not be possible to restore important data such
as contacts and messages. If you have set up a Microsoft® Exchange ActiveSync®
(EAS) account on your Xperia™ device, the EAS security settings may limit the lock
screen type to only a PIN or password. This occurs when your network
administrator specifies a lock screen type for all EAS accounts for enterprise
security reasons. Contact the network administrator of your company or
organisation to check what network security policies are implemented for mobile
devices.
When you have a screen lock selected, tap
beside Screen lock for additional settings.
