Reasons to Use Safeguard Features
•
Users and aliases can be temporarily frozen to prevent access to the system.
•
Special user groups can be defined independent of user definitions. These groups
can be used to facilitate file-sharing, particularly in the OSS environment.
•
Password management features allow you to specify attributes such as password
expiration and password minimum length.
•
When the Safeguard software is running, you can specify additional logon features,
including password expiration warnings, and blind password entry. In addition, you
are notified of the last logon date and time.
•
A security event-exit process, which is written by the user, can be implemented to
provide custom controls for authentication, authorization, and password
management.
