Novell Cool Solutions: Question & Answer

Q:
What prevents someone from copying a user's login credentials to floppy disk, and logging into an application as that user from another PC?
A:
Security is a primary feature of SecureLogin. SecureLogin stores all user credentials, encrypted in the network directory, and can optionally cache details in an encrypted format on the local workstation. The encryption process uses the passphrase, set by the user when they first run SecureLogin, to uniquely encrypt that user's secrets. A copy of the passphrase is stored against the user's object in the Directory, so only the user who is logged on has access to their own secrets. The copied file will be unreadable and unusable.
