Security Considerations
ArcFM provides users with online and offline access to an important asset of the organization: its GIS data. As such, it is important to secure that data against theft. These are recommendations specifically for securing client devices.
Refer to Microsoft's documentation on BitLocker for more information.
- Enable full disk encryption on machines that host any ArcFM product.
- Configure screen lock timeout for a maximum of five minutes.
-
Follow these recommendations for general Windows settings:
-
Avoid granting local administrator privileges to end users.
-
Do not grant end-user account permissions to install applications.
-
Use application “allow-listing” to permit only approved applications or executables to run.
-
Use real-time endpoint protection to detect unauthorized changes to installed components.
