Initially, the secure vault is keyed with a default password known only to the AltaVault software. This allows the
AltaVault to automatically unlock the vault during system startup. You can change the password, but the secure vault
does not automatically unlock on startup. If not using the default password, the user will need to provide the password
to unlock secure vault. To use encryption, the secure vault must be unlocked.
If a password policy is enabled, the number of retries allowed for unlocking the secure vault is the same as the number
of retries for locking out a user. The lockout duration is also the same as set in the password policy. To change the
password policy, choose Configure > User Permissions and select Password Policy as the bottom of the page.
