FirstSpirit Security
During the generation of a project information is saved in a local database, the FirstSpirit Access Control Database. This database provides information about FirstSpirit objects, for example about access rights, which have been saved for an object. The synchronisation of the Access Control Database with the currently released project status is carried out automatically while the generation of content.
For checking the access rights in the live system the module “FirstSpirit Security” is associated closely with the personalisation of contents (so called “user permission”, see FirstSpirit Manual for Administrators). If – for example – an access protection for specific objects in the live status is to be realised, the module “FirstSpirit DynamicPersonalization” (available on purchase only) is required in addition to the module “FirstSpirit Security”.
The module “FirstSpirit Security” provides not only information from the Access Control Database but also a servlet for deployment of FirstSpirit contents (“CRC Transfer Servlet”). Its task is to synchronise generated project files of the FirstSpirit server with those on the live system. By means of the CRC checksum calculation modified files can be identified and only these files will then be updated. This differential upload accelerates the updating process in the live system.
The “FirstSpirit Security” module supports the following aspects:
- Providing information about single FirstSpirit objects
- Providing access rights on object level
- Matching of files during generation (via a FirstSpirit servlet)
