ExactUpdate:

Don't allow the record to be edited unless data in the field with the ExactUpdate restriction submitted by the Web user exactly matches the value that is stored in that field.

This is the way I use it in one instance:

<INPUT TYPE="password" NAME="Password" VALUE="" size="8">

where Password is the name of a field in the database and each record can have a unique value. When the user wants to update a record, they make the changes in the form, type in the password, click the submit button and if the data in the password field matches the data in the password record's password field (and that user has edit permission for the database), then the update is accepted.
