QuVIS Acuity User Manual - System Security Features
System Security Features
The QuVIS Acuity includes system security features that allow the server to be configured with user accounts and
permission levels. Security information is stored in an encrypted format and stored in manner that prevents
tampering and unauthorized access to user account information.
By default, the Acuity ships with its security features disabled, which allows the owner to customize the system
freely. However, you may wish to enable “user privileges” that are assigned to known operators (users). These
privileges or security levels are used to restrict access to sensitive operations or commands based upon the users
account type.
If security is enabled, the unit will power on and will require a user login to activate even User privileges.
Account Security Levels
Currently there are three security levels (user, technician, administrator), each allowing the operator a different
degree of operator freedom. Security levels are enforced from all system interfaces (QShell, Telnet, FTP, GUI).
If system security is not enabled, default access is set to Administrator level permissions.
USER
This is the power-on default and lowest user level. This user level is essentially limited to being able only to play
and. The system log is viewable by users in order to be able to report system warnings or errors.
