Customer security requirements
The Instant Capacity software is designed to provide maximum protection for sensitive customer
information. It follows these customer security requirements:
• Sensitive customer data (names, phone numbers, email addresses, hostnames, IP addresses)
is not transmitted to HP.
• There are no transmissions of authentication credentials in clear (nonencrypted) text.
• Nonsuperuser access to iCAP commands and data is not allowed.
• Confidential information is encrypted when transmission is required.
• Appropriate protections are accorded to confidential data and authentication credentials.
Security tuning options
Instant Capacity asset reporting (via email to HP) is optional and is turned off by default. Customers
can enable asset reporting by executing the icapnotify -a on command.
