The JOC Cockpit has been designed from the beginning to ensure that it is suitable for use in security-sensitive areas.
Architecture
The architecture introduced with the JOC Cockpit ensures that users are restricted to only being able to directly access to the JOC Cockpit. The JOC Cockpit then calls the Web Service which has access to the JobScheduler Masters themselves. See the JOC Cockpit - Architecture article for more information.
Log In Form
The Remember Me setting in the JOC Cockpit Log In form shown below allows users to prevent misuse of log in information cached by the browser.
The behavior of the JOC Cockpit when Remember Me is set or not set depends on the situation. This behavior is specified in the following table:
Situation | Remember Me Set | Remember Me Not set |
---|---|---|
User logs out, browser reverts to Log In page | Log In information shown, credentials are available | Log In form is empty, input of credentials required |
Session expires, browser reverts to Log In page | Log In information shown | Log In form is empty, input of credentials required |
Browser is closed during session and then reopened; Log In page is opened by user | User is automatically logged in | Log In form is empty, input of credentials required |
Note that:
- the Log In form will not be emptied after a period of time when Remember Me is set and a user does not log in again,
- the behavior specified in the table is independent of whether or not the browser is set to save login information.
- therefore do not use Remember Me if you are working in a security-sensitive environment.
