R
Remote Access Service (RAS)
A service that provides remote networking for telecommuters, mobile workers, and
system administrators who monitor and manage servers at multiple branch offices.
Users with RAS on a SecureSuite computer can dial in to remotely access their
networks for services such as file and printer sharing, electronic mail, scheduling,
and SQL database access.
S
SecureSession account
A set of logon credentials that has been registered (stored for later submittal) with
SecureSession. In SecureSession for Applications, a registered set of credentials
needed to access an application window (and data set). In SecureSession for
Internet Explorer, a user name and password required for access to a web site.
You may have multiple SecureSession accounts for a single application or web
site. For example, you might have more than one account with Microsoft Outlook
or Hotmail, each of which requires a different set of logon credentials.
Server
In general, refers to a computer that provides shared resources to network users.
Single Sign-On
A service that coordinates multiple domain sign-on procedures into one
authentication process. Single sign-on services reduce the time taken by users in
sign-on operations to multiple domains, including a reduction in the possibility of
such sign-on operations failing; improve security through the reduced need for a
user to handle and remember multiple sets of authentication information; reduction
in the time taken, and improved response, by system administrators in adding and
removing users to the system or modifying their access rights; improved security
through the enhanced ability of system administrators to maintain the integrity of
user account configuration including the ability to inhibit or remove an individual
user’s access to all system resources in a coordinated and consistent manner.
