5 Security

Security Planning

Your answers to the following questions will help you set up your security configuration.

Do You Need MultiCommManager Security?

Reasons why you may want to use MultiCommManager security:

You have a host that has little or no security for inbound calls

If you have a host device that doesn’t provide security, then MultiCommManager can be your security

device, providing all of the security options that were detailed in the chapter introduction. Also,

even if you have security, MultiCommManager security might provide more features than the

built-in security that your host device has. For example, your host device might not be able to

screen users by time of day or day of the week.

You would like an extra layer of security

If your system already provides call-in security, MultiCommManager security can provide an

additional layer of security of a different type. With MultiCommManager callback security, the

person calling in must have physical access to the callback phone in order to get into the system.

You want the company to pay for long-distance calls to a host

MultiCommManager security can provide reversal of phone charges by calling back a user after the

user has passed the security check. The user would have to pay for the short call-in security check,

but the company would pay for the rest of the time online.

You want to track who is connecting to a host

Using the Call Traffic window, you can tell who is connected into your system at any time. Using

the Statistical Analyzer module, you can produce reports that will tell you who was connected to

your system, for how long, and when. This information can be used for billing or security purposes.
