/*! \page multiuser_sec_page Multi-user Case Security
\section mulit_sec_overview Overview
This page outlines the security protections that exist in a multi-user case deployment so that you can protect sensitive data. A multi-user deployment must be in a private network to ensure that only authorized users can access data. Remote sites should connect to central services via a VPN.
- Central Storage: It is your responsibility to use folder-based permissions to restrict access to the case folder. A user must be able to read and write into the case folder to open a case via Autopsy. It contains the Solr index, module output, logs, and reports.
- Central Database: PostgreSQL supports authentication via a login and password. Each Autopsy client must be configured with a PostgreSQL username and password. It is up to you to decide if there is a single username and password for the entire lab or if you will configure a new one for each client.
- Central Solr: Solr does not require a username or password to connect to it and query it. There is an optional way to configure Solr to require them, but we have not tried that yet.
- Messaging Service: ActiveMQ can be configured to require a username and password. Like the central database, it is up to you to decide on if there is a single username and password or one for each client.
Because the Solr server does not restrict access to the indexed content,
you should deploy these services in a network that only authorized users
have access to. Future versions will allow for additional protection
of sensitive data.
