Secure the Notification Website

The Notification Website allows you to take full advantage of the rich set of notification management features provided by CA Automation Point. You can make the website accessible within the company intranet and enable it as an open platform for authorized usage from anywhere, anytime.

The security measures that you take for the Notification Website can ensure many aspects of security and protection, while at the same time provide the widest user base with maximum functionality. To this end, the Notification Website provides these kinds of security:

• Physical Security – The CA Automation Point server and the web server are expected to run behind the corporate firewall within the company intranet on the company property. Your company controls any direct access to the physical site, the computers, and the software on them.
• Data Encryption –The data transmitted to and from the Notification Website is encrypted and protected. Your site's webmasters control the means for establishing secure data transmission mechanisms, such as SSL (Secure Sockets Layer), between the web server and the client browsers that are connected. The data transmitted between the web server and the AP server is encrypted using proprietary algorithms.
• Authentication – The Notification Website is protected from illicit users. The identity of a user is verified and confirmed before he or she is allowed to use the Notification Website.
• Authorization – The Notification Website prevents authenticated users from using the website in unauthorized ways. User privileges and permissions are checked before a legitimate user is allowed to access particular information or to use particular methods.
