6.2. System Security
16.3 System Security – Protect your system and data from unauthorized access.
Require Authorization to Boot Windows
Enable this option to add an extra layer of security by requiring user authorization before the system can boot into Windows. This prevents unauthorized access at the boot level and helps protect critical system data.
Note: This feature requires Access Control to be enabled. Without Access Control, the boot authorization option cannot be activated. If you are unsure which security setting to choose, it is recommended to select the Auto option under System Security.
When set to Auto, RestoreX360 will automatically apply the most suitable encryption and security configuration based on your system’s hardware and performance capabilities.
RestoreX360 offers four security options to control the level of encryption applied to your data and system components:
1. No Encryption
-
Disables all encryption. This option offers no protection and is not recommended for sensitive data.2. Encrypt Snapshot Loader and Index
-
Provides comprehensive security by encrypting both the snapshot loader and the associated index files. This ensures that both the application logic and indexing information are protected from unauthorized access.
3. Encrypt Snapshot Loader Only
-
Encrypts only the snapshot loader, securing the core component while leaving index files unencrypted. Suitable for scenarios where performance is prioritized over full encryption.
4. Auto
-
Recommended. Automatically selects the most appropriate encryption level based on your system’s configuration and performance capabilities.
Note: When you choose the Auto option, RestoreX360 intelligently determines the optimal encryption method to balance security and system performance.
