Create Database

Database Name - CyberAudit-Web supports multiple databases. Enter the name of the new database here. By default, the database name will become the "Account Name" when logging in. A new "Account Name" may be entered when modifying the database settings. To set up a new database now, enter its name (alphanumeric characters and underscores are allowed). Database names must be unique within the database server. Depending on the database type and server version some names might be rejected. For example, names that are valid numbers are typically rejected as are SQL reserved words (like key, lines, or index...). Check the box to create a new database by restoring from a backup file. Then click Next. A list of CyberAudit-Web backup files will be displayed. Click on the desired file and select Restore backup.

• CyberLock Access Code Source - These are the initial passwords that become the access codes used by keys to open locks. These access codes may be generated in one of two ways:
  • Secure Random - Select this option to create CyberLock access codes that cannot be guessed. The codes are generated randomly using the server's cryptographic strength random number generator. Access codes generated for FlashLock lock tags are always generated as Secure Random codes. Secure Random codes are not visible. It is vital to keep ongoing backups of the CyberAudit-Web database to ensure the system can be recovered in the event of a server hardware failure or data corruption.
  • Typed Text -

    

    Select this option to create CyberLock access codes from passwords typed into input forms. This method is weaker than Secure-Random unless the password is very long, very random, and never reused for any other purpose.

  Additional notes about access codes for CyberLocks and FlashLocks:

  • For your protection, no record is kept in the server or database of the actual passwords you enter, and there is NO mechanism for recovering lost passwords. There is NO "backdoor" password that allows access to programmed locks.
  • If entering Typed Text passwords, select passwords that would be difficult to guess. Use words or phrases that are long. Avoid using personal names, family names, company names, dates of birth, Social Security Numbers, etc.
• Top Level Password - CyberAudit-Web automatically creates a single administrator and login for a new system. It is the "primary" or root login to the system and named "TopLevel" and is assigned to a People record with a name of "TopLevel". Enter a password for this administrator here. Check the Force password change upon first login checkbox if the password you enter should be changed.
• Starting Time Zone - Each communicator in the database as well as each unique administrator operates within a time zone. The Starting Time Zone becomes the default to fill the initial value when a new communicator or administrator is created.
