Testing
After creating and configuring the Domain Controller and setting permissions for Aurora
Edit bins, you should test the system to make sure that the security is working:
• Aurora Edit system operation:
Basically, check that permissions exist functionally where they should and that
permissions are denied functionally where they should be denied. A Viewer user
should not be able to write or delete. Significantly, where a user is denied all
permissions (as might be the case for an investigative report that should be editable
by only a small group) make sure that users outside the group have no access and no
availability in the private group. Check that delete permissions are truly denied.
Check that read only users in a particular bin cannot write.
• Winking:
Winking requires a complicated security relationship between several processes.
Therefore, it’s important to check that users who were expected to be able to wink can
wink. Create a clip on the K2 media client and wink it to a non-SmartBin using Aurora
Edit. Likewise, create a Aurora Edit clip and wink it to a K2 media client
non-SmartBin.
• SmartBins:
Since SmartBins on an SAN function by winking, they have similar dependencies to
user-initiated winking. Check that a clip recorded on a Profile SmartBin appears in
the associated Aurora Edit SmartBin and vice-versa.
• Conform Server:
The Conform Server has overlapping permissions needs. Publish a story out of Aurora
Edit or Aurora Edit LD to make sure that it works.
