Storage encryption is a way to restrict access to Leo’s storage by using a password.
Once the storage is encrypted, no one will be able to use the Leo scanner without
knowing the password.

not be restored. In this case, to reset your password or disable the storage
encryption, you will need to format the storage and erase all your data.
You can change the password for the Leo’s storage at any time without aect-
ing your data. However, this would require entering the current password (see
Changing encryption password).
Note: By default, the storage encryption is disabled.
The status of storage encryption can be one of the following:
