CerBeruS(R) - Access Control System
Cerberus® application is an enhanced customized subsystem of XRHMA Suite and its main scope is to provide control and management functionality in accessing Andromeda applications by generating and handling PINs, controlling and handling Tokens, uploading documents to site through its internal CMS module and also providing security and access settings for Andromeda.
The main functionality of Cerberus® application is:
º PIN generation and management. Since passwords provide in most cases the only means of authenticating the user access on a system, a good password management system, that would guarantee the effectiveness and quality of the enforced authentication mechanisms, must exist. Furthermore, an effective and quality password-based authentication mechanism should conform to some general security standards and best practices for the management of the users’ account. Cerberus provides the following functionality for the PIN management processing:
-
Generate PIN after customer request or massive PIN generation for bulk distribution to Bank branches.
-
Print serialized PINs in sealed envelops per batch
-
Four eyes checking before packaging and shipment
-
Full control of each PIN envelop though out its life cycle (acceptance, assignment to the client account, activation, deactivation, cancellation etc)
-
Detailed audit trail for controlling & monitoring PINs, using multiple selection criteria
-
Statistics and management reporting
º Token handling and control. Furthermore, there is a customized feature for Token handling. Through this option, the following features are provided:
-

º Content management subsystem. This function is used to create, manage, store, authorize and upload content to Andromeda web site. The content includes text files with embedded graphics, PDFs, photos, video and audio that renders other content or interacts with the user.

There is also available functionality to upload, check and delete any announcement that is intended for the company’s web site.

-
