Secure

The secure feature aims to prevent unwanted interaction without user intervention.

::: tip Secure does not currently implement encryption/decryption/etc and should not be a replacement where a strong hardware/software based solution is required. :::

Unlock sequence

To unlock, the user must perform a set of actions. This can optionally be configured to be multiple keys.

  • While unlocking all keyboard input is ignored
  • Incorrect attempts will revert back to the previously locked state

Automatic Locking

Once unlocked, the keyboard will revert back to a locked state after the configured timeout. The timeout can be refreshed by using the secure_activity_event function, for example from one of the various hooks.

Usage

Add the following to your rules.mk:

SECURE_ENABLE = yes
