Security

Industry standard best practice for passwords for both the web server and Linux machines. Site designers do not have direct access to the underlying Linux server, the raw database or files. All changes are done within sandbox of the system. 

Users may access all allowed data via the Web Forms or via Industry standard protocols such as:

• SOAP 
• WebDav
• ICal 
• GWT RPC
• JDBC
