ClearSCADA security helps to protect the SCADA system from unauthorized access. System access requires a password. The actions that you perform as a user are logged by the system
As a system user, you will be assigned access permissions according to the functions you need to perform, and you will only be able to see the functions that this makes available to you.
You will use a ViewX or WebX client that has been configured by a higher level user, which will provide access to the displays and features that you need to carry out your tasks, such as performing actions on database items and managing alarms.
System security allows you to manage access to the client. For more information, see the topics that are listed in the gray footer section at the bottom of this topic. Select the relevant entry to display the topic that you require.
When you log off from ViewX, the current settings for the following interface components are stored locally as a client setting and associated with your user account.
These settings are then restored when you log on to the same computer. If you accessed ClearSCADA without logging on, the most recent settings for the built-in Guest user account are displayed.
