2 Securing your solution and your data is a shared responsibility between eMagiz and you.
3
4 In this microlearning, we will educate you on the basics of the security of the eMagiz Portal.
5
6 == 1. Prerequisites ==
7
8 * Basic knowledge of the eMagiz platform
9
10 == 2. Key concepts ==
11
12 This microlearning centers around eMagiz portal security.
13 With portal security we mean: Ensuring that your model is not accessible for those who have no right to access your model.
14
15 The portal security consists of multiple parts:
16
17 * User access to Portal
18 * User access to Integration Models
19 * User authorizations to Integration Models
20 * Partner user access to Client environments
21 * Password Policy & Validity
22
23 For each aspect, it is good to know how the security is set up by eMagiz.

25 == 3. Portal Security - Basic ==
26
27 Securing the portal is done in various ways.
28 In this microlearning, the focus will be on user access to the portal, to models, and how to determine that a user has exactly the rights he/she needs to execute their job.
29 We will discuss each of these aspects below one by one.
30
31 === 3.1 User access to the portal ===
32
33 Users can be added with their email address by the eMagiz Partner Manager or the Company Contact, upon which the user gets an email to sign-in.
34 A temporary password is created and emailed as well, which has to be changed at the first login to the iPaaS Portal. Users are connected to organizations in eMagiz.
35 In the administration section of the user, an MFA token can be used to enable the Multifactor Authentication on a user level.
36 Typical authenticators on a smartphone can be used such as Google Authenticator.
37 An MFA response is required for model owners to manage the permissions on a model level and for any Edit activity in Production environments. See the next sections for more details on these functions.
38
39 === 3.2 Users access to models ===
40
41 Users can be added to Integration models, which hold all the configurations required to run the different integrations for the TAP environments.
42 Integration models are connected to organizations in eMagiz to ensure the integration model remains within the limits of the license agreements.
43 Users can be added to integration models of the organization where the user belongs to. Users can't be added to integration models of other clients.
44
45 === 3.3 User authorizations to models ===
46
47 Every integration model has a model owner who can distribute rights across functionalities and environments.
48 In the picture below, one can see the various options available across the Integration Life Cycle (ILM) Phases Capture through Manage.
49 The model owner manages the user permissions and needs to have the MFA authentication level activated before making any changes.
50
51 * In case of Edit permission is granted on an ILM phase, all the sub-options can be configured
52 * View rights mean that all options can be viewed only
53 * In case the user has no Edit or View rights to a certain ILM phase, the phase will not be displayed at all in the eMagiz iPaaS Portal
54 * Model owners are assigned to integration models by the previous model owner, the company contact or an eMagiz administrator
55 * An audit trail is kept of the changes made in the model permission structure

59 === 3.4 Partner user access to models ===
60
61 Partner organizations are supported in eMagiz.
62 Model owners can select a user from their organization or the connected partner organization.
63 The connection between client and partners organization is managed by eMagiz administrators
64
65 === 3.5 Password policy & Validity ===
66
67 Below the relevant items for the password policy in the eMagiz Portal
68
69 * There is no expiry policy on the password - eMagiz has a Forget Password functionality.
70 * Password must be 8 - 20 characters long, cannot contain white spaces, and must contain at least one digit, one upper case, and one lower case letter."
