Recommendations:

  • Create a new Access Code that is used only for the Foreign Locks. For extra security, go to the CyberAudit-Web server where the foreign locks will be imported and add the access code so the password is not known by administrators of the other system.
  • Set the Secondary Access Code of the locks to be exported to the new Access Code. This is not required but it is safer.
  • Give the locks descriptive names based on their location that will be easier to recognize in the importing system.
