Access security gateway
Access Security Gateway (ASG) prevents unauthorized access by requiring the
use of the ASG Key for logging into the system. The ASG Key can be:
use of the ASG Key for logging into the system. The ASG Key can be:
■
a hand-held device, or
■
a software module you load on the PC you use for accessing the system.
Detailed Description
Authentication is successful only when DEFINITY ECS and ASG communicate
with a compatible key. The challenge/response negotiation starts after establishing
an RS-232 session and you enter a valid DEFINITY ECS login ID. The
authentication transaction consists of a challenge, issued by DEFINITY ECS and
based on the login ID entered by you, followed by the expected response, again
entered by you. The core of this transaction is a secret key, which is
information-possessed by both the lock (ASG) and the key. Interception of either
the challenge or response during transmission does not compromise the security
of the system. The relevance of the authentication token used to perform the
challenge/response is limited to the current challenge/response exchange
(session).
