Additional security elements

Assigning security roles

In managing computer security (particularly for large organizations), one important practice is to

divide responsibilities and rights among various types of administrators and users.

NOTE: In a small organization or for individual use, these roles may all be held by the same person.

For HP ProtectTools, the security duties and privileges can be divided into the following roles:

●

Security officer—Defines the security level for the company or network and determines the

security features to deploy, such as Drive Encryption.

NOTE: Many of the features in HP ProtectTools can be customized by the security officer in

cooperation with HP. For more information, go to

http://www.hp.com.

●

IT administrator—Applies and manages the security features defined by the security officer. Can

also enable and disable some features. For example, if the security officer has decided to deploy

smart cards, the IT administrator can enable both password and smart card mode.

● User—Uses the security features. For example, if the security officer and IT administrator have

enabled smart cards for the system, the user can set the smart card PIN and use the card for

authentication.

CAUTION: Administrators are encouraged to follow “best practices” in restricting end-user

privileges and restricting user access.

Unauthorized users should not be granted administrative privileges.

Managing HP ProtectTools passwords

Most of the HP ProtectTools Security Manager features are secured by passwords. The following

table lists the commonly used passwords, the software module where the password is set, and the

password function.

The passwords that are set and used by IT administrators only are indicated in this table as well. All

other passwords may be set by regular users or administrators.
