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 7 to 15 digits), as well as requiring or not the input of one or more 'Special Characters'. The "Special Character"
functions as both the 'SHIFT (
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

• If a 'Special Character' was used during the configuration of the User PIN, for instance, example 'B' above,
then the cloudAshur can only be unlocked by entering the PIN with the 'Special Character' entered precisely
in the order configured, as per example 'B' above - ('2', '4', 'SHIFT (
• More than one 'Special Character' can be used and placed along your 7-15 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 the 'Self-Destruct PIN'. The complexity setting for the Self-Destruct PIN and
Admin PIN is always 7-15 digits, with no special character required.
