Login security
Users must enter their user names and passwords to log in. The application does not allow duplicate user names. There are two authentication methods, depending on the type of environment:
- Environments with native authentication—User information stored in the Central Coding application is used for authentication.
- Oracle SSO environments—User information stored in Oracle® Health Sciences Identity and Access Management Services (IAMS) is used for authentication.
If either a user name or password is incorrect, an error message appears, but does not tell the user the value that is incorrect. Therefore, if someone else is using the account to attempt to log in, the message does not confirm either a user name or password.
