Iomega EZ Media and Backup Center User Guide

Enabling Security and Creating an Administrator User

With security turned on, only administrator users can view or change settings on the Iomega EZ ,

including creating or deleting users and Shares. When you create users, you limit access to your

Iomega EZ to specific people, and when you secure Shares, you limit data access to specific users.

1. On the Security page, click the switch on.

2. When you turn security on, you will be asked to create an administrator user. Provide a

username and password, and then confirm your password.

3. Encryption is always available when you access your Iomega EZ using https. By setting local

encryption, you enforce encryption on your local network. By setting remote encryption, you

enforce encryption outside your local network, such as through the internet. Choices for both

encryption types are Not required, Passwords only (passwords are encrypted through https),

and Always (encryption is always enforced). Always encrypting communication is safest, but

can impact performance.

Note: When security is turned on, browser communications with the Iomega EZ are

encrypted. Therefore, each computer that attempts to access the Iomega EZ may encounter

a security warning, which can be safely ignored. In addition, you may be asked to accept a

signed certificate for the Iomega EZ , which you should accept. If you change the device

name at a later date, these warnings may appear again.

Iomega EZ administrators do not have access to all Shares by default. Access rights to Shares

must be granted explicitly to administrators, as with other users.

4. If you have your own security certificate, you can load it by selecting Use an imported

certificate and browsing to the certificate to load it.

5. Click Apply to save your changes.

6. Click here to learn how to create users.

7. Click here to learn how to secure any existing or new Shares.

Disabling Security

Disabling security will cause all defined users to be deleted.

Note: If you are using other features on your Iomega EZ that require security, you cannot disable

security until those features are also disabled.

1. On the Security page, click the switch off.

2. Disabling security will cause all defined users and groups to be deleted. Check the box to

disable security.

3. Click Apply to save your changes.

Security is disabled.
