# User menu (Encryption)

Standard users (User 1\~4) can manage their own security settings, such as changing or deleting their passwords, provided the Administrator has granted the necessary permissions.

{% hint style="info" %}
**Menu Visibility** If you cannot see the **Encryption** menu after pressing the Menu button, it means the Administrator has disabled your permission to change or delete your password.
{% endhint %}

***

### Accessing the Menu

1. Press the **\[Menu]** button on your IODD device.
2. Navigate to and select the **\[Encryption]** menu.

**User Menu Options**

* **Chg Password**: Allows User 1\~4 to independently change their own login password.
* **Del Password**: Allows User 1\~4 to delete their own account and password from the device.
  {% endhint %}

{% hint style="warning" %}
**Administrative Authority** Even if a user has the rights to manage their own password, the **Administrator** retains full control and can change or delete any user's password at any time via the Admin Mode.
{% endhint %}

### Security Recommendations

{% hint style="warning" %}
**Password Deletion** If you use the **Del Password** function, you will lose access to the encrypted drive immediately. You will need to contact the Administrator to have a new user profile and password assigned to you.
{% endhint %}

{% hint style="info" %}
**Changing Passwords** It is recommended to change your password periodically. When changing your password, ensure you remember your **User Identification Digit (1-4)**, as it must be entered as a prefix every time you log in.
