           20 .Sh SECURITY CONSIDERATIONS
           21 To make sure a locked screen can not be bypassed by switching VTs
           22 or killing the X server with Ctrl+Alt+Backspace, it is recommended
           23 to disable both in
           24 .Xr xorg.conf 5
           25 for maximum security:
           26 .Bd -literal
           27 Section "ServerFlags"
           28         Option "DontVTSwitch" "True"
           29         Option "DontZap"      "True"
           30 EndSection

           32 .Sh CUSTOMIZATION
           33 .Nm
           34 can be customized by creating a custom config.h from config.def.h and
           35 (re)compiling the source code.
           36 This keeps it fast, secure and simple.
