4.3.1 Security Policies
Dec/9/2005
Tradepoint has been built first and foremost with
security in mind. The very first
thing you must do when opening Tradepoint is log in. What this does is not only allow access
or restrict access to certain areas of the software, but it also allows the
creation of an audit able trail within the software.
Tradepoint allows
for an unlimited amount of security policies. Every employee must be
linked to some sort of Security Policy in order to log into Tradepoint.
Through Tradepoint's Security Policies Window you can specify to the very field
name, weather or not you would like employees to have read, write, edit and or
delete access to specific information. Tradepoint will even hide windows
and tabs from users if their permissions do not allow access to those secured
areas. Proper setup of your company's security policies does take a little
effort, thought and time, but it is well worth it. We have built
Tradepoint with security in mind. Feel free to use Tradepoint security to
its highest level.
The Tradepoint
Security Policies window can be opened by clicking the tools Tab and then the
Security icon. In this window you can store an unlimited number of policies and
assign these policies to an unlimited number of staff. The Security
Settings within Tradepoint are secure by default which means when you
create a new Security Policy you will need to check off each section you
would like that Profile to have access to.
Simply check
on the boxes you would like your staff to have access to and Tradepoint software
will secure itself. It is advisable
to start at the lowest permission level and build your way up as you go. At any time you can create a new policy
from scratch, or use an existing policy as a template to build a new policy
with.
