Overview of security features
The Empirica Signal software provides the following security features to help you secure your system:
- Authentication
You can choose from three authentication methods to ensure only authorized users have access. You can also select from flexible password options to establish a user account password policy.
- User Access Control
You can assign users to several built-in or custom roles. You can also assign permissions to restrict user access to only the features that are appropriate for their job responsibilities. The Empirica Signal software also provides publishing capabilities to restrict user access to objects.
- Auditing
Empirica Signal automatically tracks user activity, including successful and failed logins, for local users. The tracked activities provide a comprehensive audit trail of actions performed.
- User Session Timeout
Empirica Signal automatically ends user sessions that have been inactive for a specified period of time. The Empirica Signal Installation Guide describes how to change the default timeout period.
