13. Before configuring CPWS
Security
CPWS has a security mechanism that can be used to prevent certain users to take certain actions.
You can control:

The users that access CPWS. This is done through user accounts and passwords.

Actions users can perform with CPWS. This is done by assigning each user a role. Each role can only
perform a predefined set of actions.
Access and action control can be configured with the user administration functionality in the
Administrator tool.
Authentication types
Authentication is performed through the login process. When logging into CPWS, a user must provide a
password as proof of identification.
CPWS can use these types of user authentication:

NT authentication
NT authentication takes advantage of Windows NT user security and account mechanisms. Users with
a valid NT account can start CPWS without entering a user name and password. Instead, the Windows NT
user name and password are used for Windows users that are currently logged in. So, you can control
access to Windows NT and CPWS with just one user account.

Database authentication
Database authentication uses CPWS security system.

Anonymous authentication
If enabled, the anonymous login option allows users to log in without further authentication. You can use
this only if
the “ccguest” account is enabled. Anonymous access should be avoided and may be illegal
according to local regulations. On systems with HIPAA support, anonymous access is disabled.
