Abstract
A method and apparatus for preventing unauthorized access to data and for destroying selected data upon receiving a 'false' access code during a final access attempt is provided. A counter is utilized to count a selected number of data access attempts. If a 'true', or correct, access code is entered before the final access attempt is reached, the counter is reset and access to the selected data is granted. If the 'true' access code is not entered on the final access attempt, then a data-destruct mechanism is invoked to destroy the selected data. The selected data may reside on a token device, a personal computer, computer server, or combinations thereof.
