wwNetwork Security

Security functions of the Center Module
1 Limiting access with user authentication
Limits users who can access the Center Module.
2 Limiting access by changing the HTTP port
Changing the HTTP port number prevents port scanning and other types of unauthorized access.
3 Encrypting access with HTTPS
Using HTTPS enables encryption of access to the Center Module to increase the security of communications.
wp Authentication information (e.g. usernames, passwords), server information and other types of information can be
leaked on the network. Take measures to prevent this from happening, such as limiting access by user authentication or
encryption of access with HTTPS.
wp Always close all browsers after accessing the Center Module to increase security.
wp Change user IDs and passwords often to strengthen security.
Important
wp If user authentication fails (authentication error) 8 or more times in 30 seconds from a PC with an identical IP address,
access to the Center Module will be blocked temporarily.
wp If 10 minutes or more passes without any operation, clicking on buttons will not perform the action intended, and instead
will return to the post-authentication screen.
