Chapter 9: SecureSession

SecureSession consists of two different applications (related in their basic
functionality):

SecureSession for Applications (SecureSession/Apps) stores passwords
and other text-based information for Windows applications.

SecureSession for Internet Explorer (SecureSession/IE) stores passwords
and user information for web sites.

SecureSession will remember user names and passwords for application windows
or web sites. The process of having SecureSession remember information is
known as “registration”. Once an application or web site is registered with
SecureSession, whenever the application is executed again or the web site is
revisited, SecureSession will automatically recognize the application or web site.
Clicking a button will cause SecureSession to fill in your stored information (upon
authentication, if required). Each application window or web site you register with
SecureSession can contain unique information. The text you submit in a

SecureSession Registration

dialog is directly related to that application or

web site, and is exclusive to each.

For both SecureSession for Applications and SecureSession for Internet Explorer,
there are three account-specific (application window-specific or web site-specific)
policies, which can be set exclusively for each application window and web site.
These are available in the

Registration

and

More Info

dialogs. There are

four user-specific policies, which are available in your

User Properties

dialog.

User-level policies override account-specific policies when set as enabled. If the
user-level policies are disabled, then the account-specific policies will determine
the effective settings. SecureSession for Applications and SecureSession for
Internet Explorer policies defined at the system level always supersede user-level
and account-level policy settings. If the system-level policies are enabled, they
take precedence. If they are set as

User Defined

, then the user-specific and

the account-specific policies will determine the effective settings.

Note: SecureSession data is available only for the user who is
currently logged on.
