CA Automation Point provides a security mechanism for the Notification Website that maximizes platform independence, while providing the widest user base with maximum functionality. This product incorporates these security principles:
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.
The data transmitted to and from the Notification Website is encrypted and protected. The webmasters at your site 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.
The Notification Website is protected from illicit users. The identity of a user is verified and confirmed before they are allowed to use the Notification Website.
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.
The site-wide security mechanisms of the NM database applies to both the desktop notification website and the mobile-friendly website.
Login names and passwords are authenticated and authorized by the same mechanisms as the desktop website.
Built-in NM privileges also apply to both websites. The only such privileges applicable to the mobile website are ‘View All Notifications’ and ‘Answer All Notifications’.
Note: LDAP security can be used for either or both authentication and authorization. For more information, see the Administrator Guide.
