ECURITY
FactoryTalk Security is intended to improve the security of your automation
system by limiting access to those with a legitimate need. FactoryTalk
Security authenticates user identities and authorizes user requests to access a
FactoryTalk-enabled system. These security services are fully integrated
into the FactoryTalk Directory and are included as part of the FactoryTalk
Services Platform that installs with many Rockwell Software products.
FactoryTalk Security replaces all of the product-specific privilege
configuration that was available in previous releases of FactoryTalk
Transaction Manager. For more information about using FactoryTalk
Transaction Manager with FactoryTalk Security, refer to Appendix C,
Securing FactoryTalk Transaction Manager using FactoryTalk Security
(page 159).
