Maintaining system security during installation

During an installation, security of the customer's system is your responsibility. You must take the following precautions to protect:

Password security

To protect password security:

  • Change the passwords for the sa, icftp, and craft logins before you begin the verification and acceptance of the Message Networking system.
  • Do not leave written passwords laying out or allow anyone to see them.
  • At the first opportunity, give the passwords directly to the customer's designated representative.
  • If you suspect that the security of any password has been compromised, notify your project manager or system administrator.

System security

To protect system security during the installation:

  • Remove all test subscribers and test mailboxes from the system when the procedures instruct you to do so.
  • Always log off the system if you will be leaving it unattended, even for a short period of time.

Tip: Unassigned mailboxes are mailboxes that have an extension, but no subscriber assignment.

For additional information about system security, see Security.
