# Secure
The secure feature aims to prevent unwanted interaction without user intervention.
::: tip
Secure does **not** currently implement encryption/decryption/etc and should not be a replacement where a strong hardware/software based solution is required.
:::
### Unlock sequence
To unlock, the user must perform a set of actions. This can optionally be configured to be multiple keys.
* While unlocking all keyboard input is ignored
* Incorrect attempts will revert back to the previously locked state
### Automatic Locking
Once unlocked, the keyboard will revert back to a locked state after the configured timeout.
The timeout can be refreshed by using the `secure_activity_event` function, for example from one of the various [hooks](../custom_quantum_functions).
## Usage
Add the following to your `rules.mk`:
```make
SECURE_ENABLE = yes
```
