Appendix 1 - What are Secure Tickets?
The ADDER.NET application has been created to achieve a
sensible balance between usability, flexibility and security. It
needs to provide a quick and easy method for registered users
to access a wide range of host computers while maintaining
complete enterprise-level security. One of the unique solutions
employed to make this possible is the system of Secure Tickets.
On request, ADDER.NET will issue a time-restricted access
permission to an eligible user, which permits KVM connection
to a specific host. ADDER.NET also maintains a complete log of
access attempts so that an audit trail is always available.
