Signature protect your Palm
Wednesday, November 3, 1999 4:45:46 PM
CIC released a program called Sign-On, a log-on/password security utility for your Palm Device. What makes this security app different is that it uses your personal signature to gain access to your device. Sign on the dotted line and you're in.

Sign-On
I use it, and its great! I forget passwords sometimes, but having something that recognizes my handwriting/signature is a great way to go! It works well, too. Had several friends try to "forge" and none could pass it.
Don't be fooled - it is not a real security

It is a neet program that could potentially bring security to your Palm, but only if Palm OS would allow it.
It registers itself with Palm OS to start automatically every time you power up your PALM, but to get around it
all you need to do is to perform soft reset with paperclip while holding UP button on your Palm. This will prevent
any programs, including Sign-On, Hacks etc. to start automatically.
It is very impressive piece of software in my opinion, just do not think that your Palm is any more secure than it
was before.
