IMPORTANT
CA Server stores personal information. In order to prevent data theft and leakage, we recommend the
following:
•
Set a password-protected screensaver to activate after your computer has been idle for a set amount
of time.
•
Use Windows Update to keep your system up-to-date with the latest software patches.
•
Carefully manage access to the CA Server computer, and install a firewall to prevent unauthorised
access from the internet.
•
Whenever possible, use SSL or other forms of secure data communication.
•
Set a login password that is at least 5 characters long, and contains a combination of letters and
numbers.
•
Periodically change all login passwords to prevent unauthorised access by third parties.
•
Set a password as soon as possible after CA Server is installed. Ensure a password is always set; if
the password is reset for any reason, set the new password immediately.
•
Make regular backups of program databases and store them securely in a different location. Record
any settings information should you need to re-install CA Server, and store it securely.
•
Care should be taken when sending e-mail via program features. Specifying an incorrect e-mail
address may result in the transmission of personal information to an unauthorised party. When e-mail
settings are made, send a test e-mail to confirm the settings are correct.
•
Restrict access to CA Server and CA Web Manager to designated administrators. Whenever possible,
do not install or run unnecessary programs on the computer used to run CA Server.
•
When using an external authorisation server, periodically check to make sure all security certificates
are valid and up-to-date.
•
When users change extensions, desks, etc., make sure that the access rights for their previous and
new extensions and computers are correct.
•
When having the computer serviced, use only authorised technicians, and before servicing, password
protect or encrypt access to database files.
•
When the computer used for CA Server is transferred, disposed of, or taken out of service, ensure all
sensitive data is securely erased.
