1. A method for controlling access rights to data stored in a hand portable device, comprising:
- a) storing a plurality of data assemblages in the hand portable device;
b) accessing a first data assemblage;
c) in response to step b), automatically restricting subsequent access to the first data assemblage using a first security mechanism;
d) accessing a second data assemblage; and
e) in response to step d), automatically restricting subsequent access to the second data assemblage using the first security mechanism.

25. A hand-portable device, for providing controlled access to stored data assemblages, comprising:
-
user input means for user input of a password;
a memory for storing a first data assemblage and a second data assemblage;
access means for enabling a user to access the first data assemblage and the second data assemblage; and
access control means arranged to detect access to the first data assemblage and automatically restrict subsequent access to the first data assemblage using a first security mechanism involving the password and arranged to detect access to the second data assemblage and automatically restrict subsequent access to the second data assemblage using the first security mechanism involving the password. - View Dependent Claims (26, 27, 28, 29, 30, 31, 32)
