About the virtual keyboard
A virtual keyboard displayed on the logon screen prevents password characters from being typed
on the physical keyboard. The virtual keyboard appears on the logon screen when a user clicks in
the password field. A user then types the password by clicking the characters on the virtual
keyboard, instead of typing them on the physical keyboard.
A virtual keyboard action applies to all logon page actions that follow it in the access policy.
The virtual keyboard action provides these configuration elements and options:
- Virtual Keyboard
- Specifies whether the onscreen virtual keyboard is enabled or disabled.
- Move Keyboard After Every Keystroke
- Specifies whether the onscreen keyboard moves after the user enters a keystroke with a mouse click.
- Allow Manual Input
- Specifies whether a user can type the password with the physical keyboard, in addition to clicking keys on the virtual keyboard.
