Example:
A user, John, installs OmniPass on his system (his home computer) and enrolls
an OmniPass user with username “John_01” and password “freq14”. He then goes to his
webmail site to log onto his account. He inputs his webmail credentials as usual
(username “John_02” and password “lifebook”), but instead of clicking [Submit], he directs
OmniPass to
Remember Password
. Now whenever he returns to that site, OmniPass will
prompt him to supply access credentials.
John enters his OmniPass user credentials (“John_01” and “freq14”) in the OmniPass
authentication prompt, and is allowed into his webmail account. He can do this with as
many sites or password-protected resources he likes, and he will gain access to all those
sites with his OmniPass user credentials (“John_01” and “freq14”). This is assuming he is
accessing those sites with the system onto which he enrolled his OmniPass user. OmniPass
does not actually change the credentials of the password protected resource. If John were
to go to another computer without he OmniPass account to access his webmail, he would
need to enter his original webmail credentials (“John_02” and “lifebook”) to gain access. If
he attempts his OmniPass user credentials on a system other than a system he’s enrolled
on, he will not gain access.
Basic Enrollment
The Enrollment Wizard will guide you through the process of enrolling a user. Unless you
specified otherwise, after OmniPass installation the Enrollment Wizard will launch on
Windows login. If you do not see the Enrollment Wizard, you can bring it up by clicking
Start
on the Windows taskbar; select
Programs
; select
Softex
; click
Enroll a new user
.
1.
Click
[Enroll an existing Windows user]
to proceed to username and password
verification. By default, the OmniPass Enrollment Wizard enters the credentials of the
currently logged in Windows user. (
Note:
Click
[Create and Enroll a new Windows
user]
to create a new Windows user account and enroll that user into OmniPass.)
2.
Enter the password you use to log in to Windows. This will become the “master
password” for this user. In most cases, the
Domain:
value will be your Windows
computer name. In corporate environments, or when accessing corporate resources,
the
Domain
: may not be your Windows computer name. Click [Next] to continue.
3.
In this step OmniPass captures your fingerprint. Refer to “Enrolling a Fingerprint”
on page 7 for additional information.
