Accessing Devices with a Lyve Token Hardware Unlocker

Requirements

• Product end user admin has set up projects and added devices to projects, including Lyve Mobile storage devices and a Lyve Mobile Padlock.
• Devices have been delivered to the product end user.

Process

1. In Lyve Management Portal, admin selects the Lyve Mobile Padlock as a hardware unlocker and assigns devices to it. Admin downloads an encrypted Lyve Token file that authorizes the unlocker to access Lyve Mobile devices.

2. Admin sends the token file to the product end user.

3. User downloads the Lyve Token file to a USB external drive.

4. User connects the USB external drive to a USB 3.0 port on Lyve Mobile Padlock. Lyve Mobile Padlock can now unlock assigned Lyve Mobile devices with no connection to Lyve Management Portal or the internet.
