Default Security Question

I have two questions regarding the default security built into the Manager role. First, is it possible to modify the behavior so that rather than they can only see analytics data for the org unit below them, rather than the org unit they are in? Second, it seems that by selecting either of the Analytics views from the top menu, the manager can see those analytics for every single org unit, rather than the one they are in. I was under the impression that the default security would only allow them to see analytics data for the org unit they are in and those below them. Is it possible to modify this behavior? Thanks.

Hi Luke,
See my anwswers in bold:
First, is it possible to modify the behavior so that rather than they can only see analytics data for the org unit below them, rather than the org unit they are in? You can remove the Current OrgUnit tab and leave the Reporting OrgUnit tab. For the Position and Staffing Analytics you probably need to change how the counts are generated in Counts.xml
Second, it seems that by selecting either of the Analytics views from the top menu, the manager can see those analytics for every single org unit, rather than the one they are in. I was under the impression that the default security would only allow them to see analytics data for the org unit they are in and those below them. Is it possible to modify this behavior? This should be the default behaviour for a Manager role. Having checked in the Roles.xml this seems like it should be the case. If not you can amend AppResources.xml and add the securitykeyword to the detail sections that display the analytics.
I hope that helps!
Luke

Change default email and forgot my security questions

Changed email service before updating iphone email address. When I attempt to edit my preferences I need to answer security questions. The security questions will not accept my answers. Apple then sends info to an email address that does not exist. Help.

Security Question: Shared Files on a Network

Security Question from a Network Newbie
Hi:
I recently returned from a meeting at a large city hotel.While at the meeting, I used the fancy hotel’s hard-wired connection to access the internet. Imagine my surprise when the next morning one of the others peakers mentioned to me, “I see that you were in the hotel; your computer was file shared to everyone in the hotel”!
How can this be? I have never changed default settings toallow this.
Does this mean that anyone in the hotel could have navigated to any file on my computer and accessed it?
How do I prevent this from ever happening again, yet still maintain my ability to access the internet and get work done?
Thank you!
OS 10.6.8

Just have Printer sharing and Bluetooth sharing checked in Sharing.
I really appreciate your advice and realize you have nothing to do with Apple's design process, but why would Apple allow others to see your computer on a network when one has a firewall turned on and "Block all incoming connections" enabled? What good does this serve in an era when everyone is so concerned about security? Why would Apple allow this?
How worried should I be: you say "they could see your System but not necessarily access your files. Probably just the public dropbox." Is it likely that they could just get the public dropbox, or could some nefarious individual figure a way to access other files?
Is there an OEM software product that allows good secuirty on an Apple system, ie no sharing of files/access to one's computer with certainty?
Thanks again for your advice!

Security Questions in Different Language

All of the emails and security questions I get from Apple are in different languages. How can i change this? Please help!

#1 and #2
can be done, if you upgrade to Solaris 10 and edit /etc/default/passwd (see man passwd)
#3:
well, should work. At least you can set how long a password is valid (see man passwd).
#4:
#5:
Can be done with if you use something like MS AD or LDAP for your naming service, don't think Standard Solaris can do it. Even if you of course can use the PAM framework to create a PAM module which does this, or search the net to see if someone have done it already.
Thinking of it, it might be possible in pure Solaris as well, but if it is haven't done it. Perhaps someone else knows.
#6 and #7:
possible, again, if you upgrade to Solaris 10. In Solaris 10 you can lock an account after X amount of failed login attempts by editing /etc/security/policy.conf and make sure that LOCK_AFTER_RETRIES are set to "yes".
By default this feature allows the user to try and login 4 times, after 4 bad login attempts the account is locked. The amount of retries can be set in /etc/default/login .
The time can also be set in login, sort of.
The latter file can also be used to specify when to log the failed attemt to syslog.
See (on Solaris 10):
man login
man policy.conf
#8:
If you are refering to the root account; in the same way as any other account i'ld suppose. Even if you have to be more careful. The root accounts might not be used very frequently, and when you have to use them its probably an emergency..

Verify custom plugin signature with Adobe Default Security

Hi,
I have a few questions using Adobe Default Security when verifying a signature.
I've created my own signing plugin which works well. When I verify my signature it states that it is a valid signature, that the document has not been altered and that the certificate is valid. When I remove my plugin and verify the signature with the Adobe Default Security it states that the signature is invalid and that the document has been altered or corrupted. When I use the DocSign sample plugin to verify my signature it states the the signature is unknown and that the integrety has not yet been verified.
My question are:
Why Adobe Default Security telling me the signature is invalid instead of unknown, like the DocSign example?
What can I do so that signature becomes unknown and not invalid when verified with Adobe Default Security?
Why is Adobe Default Security telling me the document has been altered or corrupted, when it has not been changed?
Regards,
Magda

As this can't be debugged without a copy of your plugin, files, etc. - you will need to open up a formal support ticket for this with our Developer Support.

Set Security Question & Answer using UME API in Web dynpro Java

Hi Experts,
I;ve developed a Web Dynpro java application to create a user in UME.
I am able to set all the user account related attributes but I am not able to set the security question and answer as I do not see any attribute for the same.
Can anyone please suggest how to set the Security question and answer in UME?
This is required so that if the user wishes to reset his password / forgets password, we can ask him the security question which he selected at the time of registration.
Please let me know if it can be achieved at the code level and whether UME API supports security question and answer or any such attribute.
Also, if no such attribute is present by default in UME at the moment; can we create/configure some custom attributes in UME and store the security question and answer into those attributes. This would serve our purpose.
Kindly assist.
Regards,
Anurag

Hi,
Thanks a lot for the reply!!!
I have one doubt here:
You've mentioned the below code to fetch the security questions in your reply:
IUser user = WDClientUser.getCurrentUser().getSAPUser();
String CUSTOMER_NAMESPACE = "com.sap.security.core.usermanagement";
String attmotname [] = user.getAttribute(CUSTOMER_NAMESPACE,"MotherName");
String attlucknum [] = user.getAttribute(CUSTOMER_NAMESPACE,"LuckyNumber");
String attmobnum [] = user.getAttribute(CUSTOMER_NAMESPACE,"MobileNumber");.
But this would be only applicable when the user has already logged on to the portal as it uses "WDClientUser.getCurrentUser().getSAPUser();" code.
On the contrary, I want the security questions and answer to be accessed even when the user is not logged on to Portal so that based on the question & answer, the user can reset his password.
Please suggest, how can we achieve this and where and how to set the custom attributes for the same?
Do we have to set the Publicly Viewable Custom Attributes present at location you mentioned in your reply?
Also, if yes; please let me know how to set the custom attributes?
Thanks & Regards,
Anurag

Forcing Users to set Security Questions

Hi All,
Currently when a user joins the organization, the user can go to IdM user interface, login and set security questions. But this is an option only if user wants to use self service in IdM. So, it has been found that users are not setting it and it becaomes a pain when they call help desk for password change and help desk is not able to verify the user's identity because security questions are not set.
Please share your thoughts how other organizations are handling this situation.
Is there any way that we can force a user to set security questions when the user logs in first time?
Regards,
Gaurav

Hello,
In our Organization we did the following.
Under the Security tab there is a Policy tab.
There you should find a policy called: Default Identity Manager Account Policy.
Under Secondary Authentication Policy Options make sure "Enforce Answer Policy at Login" is checked.
In page help states:
Select this option to enforce the authentication question policy when the user logs in to this interface.
This solution works however it did become problematic while we had pass-thru authentication configured.
All the best

J2EE Security Question

I am developing an e-commerce application using J2EE1.3.This application enable users to set up their own accounts without administrative intervention.They are prompt to provide some personal information as well as a username and password.This information is stored in the database.Since the security roles are defined at deploy time, my question is: How the application can assign dynamically roles in the users that enter the system?????

The default security provided is not going to work for you, you will have to create a Custom Realm to implemet your own security mechanism. This will vary depending on which Application Server you are using.

Portal Security Question

Our SAP Portal Version is NetWeaver 7.01 SP5 which uses an ABAP UME .
We are planning to implement the Security Question Feature and it has been implemented in Test systems Succesfully .
The Issue is that there are already 20,000 + Users in Portal .
What we plan to do is set "Birthdate" as default Question for users Already in the Portal so that when user goes to change his password he can give his birthdat and his password is reset .
The issue is , I do not know , which TABLE stores the Security Question and Answer .
Any Ideas !!!
Regards,
Ashish .A. Poojary

That's sound good!
We will definitely try this way.
Meanwhile we decided to play safe.
We recently configured the security question feature for portal with thousands of existing users. We need to configure date of birth as default questions for all these existing users.
Now me made a small change in plan, we are planning to set Birth Year as Security question. So we will collection the encrypted
code for each year from portal database, then try to schedule a batch of jobs to update Q&A for different set of users based on their Birth Year.
Will update you the status.
Thank you Voros for your great support. Happy Christmas!
Regards

How do I reset my security questions if I forgot the answers and I don't have the same email for verification?

I Can't remember the answer to my security questions.
THe he default email to reset is old.

If you don't have access to your rescue email account (you won't be able to change it until you can answer your questions) then you will have to contact Support in your country to get the questions reset.
Contacting Apple about account security : Contact Apple for help with Apple ID account security
If your country isn't on that page then try this form and explain and see what they reply with : https://ssl.apple.com/emea/support/itunes/contact.html
When they've been reset you can then update your rescue email address for potential future use : Manage your Apple ID primary, rescue, alternate, and notification email addresses
Or if it's available in your country you could change to 2-step verification : Frequently asked questions about two-step verification for Apple ID

Could someone please explain to me how to set-up my Apple ID so that both my password AND security questions have to be answered before access is granted? Is this possible? I am not very computer smart, so could you explain step-by-step!Very Appreciated!

The security questions will only be asked on the first purchase on a computer or device (though people have occasionally posted that they've asked for them when it isn't the first time) - I'm not aware of any way to change that. You can force the password to be required on your iPad via Settings > General > Restrictions > Require Password set to 'Immediately' (the default is a 15 minute period during which it doesn't need re-entering)

HT1725 How to reset security questions if I forgot original answers to security questions

How to reset security questions if I forgot original answers to security questions?

@ haiduc -
1. Starting a new query ..
Select appropriate Board (Selecting 'E series and communicators' as far as the device goes..but more apt will be the 'Hardware' Board under 'Tips and Troubleshooting' in this particular case..) and then select 'New Message' ..
2. The security code needs to be reset to the default 12345 which can only be done by Nokia Care in your region. A proof of ownership (Bill / Invoice) may be asked.
Moderator's note: We amended the title of this post as we moved it to the most appropriate board.

My iPad wont let me download apps bc security questions, but when I try to make them it freezes

Every time I try to download an app it tells me I need to update my security questions, but once I click to make the questions the box goes white. So I'm not sure how to fix it

The new questions show on your account on http://appleid.apple.com ? If they do then try logging out and back into your account on your phone (assuming that is where you are trying to purchase from) and see if the new questions then show on it.
