7 User Security Control
In this WBT, we provide administrators with a new security control tool – “
User Security Control
.” The User Security Control
tool provides functionalities to setup and customize the security feature of the WBT. Less time is spent for Administrators to
setup and customize specified environments for users that use the WBT in User Mode. The User Security Control can be
launched from the Control Panel.
The following content of this chapter will describe the detail of User Security Control.
7.1 Administrator Mode and User Mode
In the WBT, two operation modes,
Administrator Mode
and
User Mode
, are available to support the User Security Control.
In the Administrator Mode, all components and functions are accessible. The environment of a WBT user working in
Administrator Mode is not limited. The
User Security Control
can just be launched in Administrator Mode. The current
operation mode is showed in the top position of the Start Menu as below.
Users working with the WBT can switch their operation mode. But only administrators that own the password for the
Administrator Mode can switch to and work in Administrator Mode. The passwords about these two modes will be described
in later sections. There are two methods to switch between these two modes.
a.
From Start Menu
: The Item “
User Switches
” in the Start Menu switches current operation mode as below.
b.
Hotkey
: The Hotkey “
F12
” can quickly switch current operation mode.
Switching current operation mode from Start Menu or by Hotkey will pop up a dialog to confirm the switching. The dialog that
switches from Administrator Mode to User Mode and from User Mode to Administrator Mode differs. As switching from
Administrator Mode to User Mode, the dialog will ask for “Switch to user mode?”
