8. Setting a User PIN Policy
The Administrator can set a restriction policy for the User PIN. This policy includes setting the minimum length of the PIN (from 8 to 64 digits), as well as requiring or not the input of one or more ‘Special Characters’. The “Special Character” functions as both the ‘SHIFT ( ) + digit’ buttons pressed down together.
To set a User PIN Policy (restrictions), you will need to enter 3 digits, for instance ‘091’, the first two digits (09) indicate the minimum PIN length (in this case, 9) and the last digit (1) denotes that one or more ‘Special Characters’ must be used, in other words ‘SHIFT ( ) + digit’. In the same way, a User PIN Policy can be set without the need of a ‘Special Character’, for instance ‘120’, the first two digits (12) indicate the minimum PIN length (in this case,12) and the last digit (0) meaning no Special Character is required.
Once the Administrator has set the User PIN Policy, for instance ‘091’, a new User PIN will need to be configured – see section 11, `Adding a New User PIN in Admin Mode’. If the Administrator configures the User PIN as ‘247688314’ with the use of a ‘Special Character’ (SHIFT ( ) + digit pressed down together), this can be placed anywhere along your 8-64 digit PIN during the process of creating the User PIN as shown in the examples below.
A. ‘SHIFT ( ) + 2’, ‘4’, ‘7’, ‘6’, ‘8’, ‘8’, ‘3’, ‘1’, ‘4’, B. ‘2’, ‘4’, ‘SHIFT ( ) + 7’, ‘6’, ‘8’, ‘8’, ‘3’, ‘1’, ‘4’, C. ‘2’, ‘4’, ‘7’, ‘6’, ‘8’, ‘8’, ‘3’, ‘1’, ‘SHIFT ( ) + 4′,

Note: · If a Special Character’ was used during the configuration of the User PIN, for instance, exampleB’ above,
then the drive can only be unlocked by entering the PIN with the Special Character’ entered precisely in the order configured, as per exampleB’ above – (2′,4′, SHIFT ( ) + 7′,6′, 8′,8′, 3′,1′, 4′). · More than oneSpecial Character’ can be used and placed along your 8-64 digit PIN.
· Users are able to change their PIN but are forced to comply with the set User PIN Policy’ (restrictions), if and when applicable. · Setting a new User PIN Policy will automatically delete the User PIN if one exists. · This policy does not apply to theSelf-Destruct PIN’. The complexity setting for the Self-Destruct PIN and Admin PIN is always 8-64 digits, with no special character required.

To set a User PIN Policy, first enter the “Admin Mode” as described in section 6. Once the drive is in Admin Mode (solid BLUE LED) proceed with the following steps.

iStorage diskAshur DT3 User Manual v1.3

1. In Admin mode, press and hold down both Unlock ( ) + 7 buttons

2. If Admin set the drive as Read-Only, the User cannot set the drive as Read/Write.

34. Brute Force Hack Defence Mechanism
The diskAshur DT3 incorporates a defence mechanism to protect the drive against a Brute Force attack. By default, the brute force limitation for Admin PIN and User PIN is set to 10 consecutive incorrect PIN entries, for the Recovery PIN it is 5. Three independent brute force counters are used to record the incorrect attempts for each PIN authorisation. If a user enters an incorrect Admin PIN ten consecutive times, (broken down into 5,3,2, clusters as described below) the drive will be reset and all data will be lost forever. If a user enters an incorrect Recovery PIN or User PIN and exceed the respective brute force limitation, the corresponding PINs will be cleared but the data will still exist on the drive.
Note: The brute force limitation is programmed to initial values when the drive is completely reset or self-destruct feature is activated. If Admin changes the User PIN, or a new User PIN is set when activating recovery feature, the User PIN brute force counter is cleared but the brute force limitation is not affected. If Admin changes the Recovery PIN, the Recovery PIN brute force counter is cleared.
Successful authorisation of a certain PIN will clear the brute force counter for that particular PIN, but not affect the other PINs brute force counter. Failed authorisation of a certain PIN will increase the brute force counter for that particular PIN, but not affect the other PINs brute force counter.

· If a user enters an incorrect User PIN 10 consecutive times, the User PIN will be deleted but the data, Admin PIN and Recovery PIN remain intact and accessible.
· If an incorrect Recovery PIN is entered 5 consecutive times, the Recovery PIN is deleted but the data and Admin PIN remain intact and accessible.
· The Admin PIN uses a more sophisticated defence mechanism in comparison to the User and Recovery PINs. After 5 consecutive incorrect Admin PIN entries, the drive will lock and the RED, GREEN and BLUE LEDs will light up solid. At this point the following steps need to be taken in order to allow the User a further 3 PIN entries.
