5.3.7 Secure Data
E-DataAid provides light security features to prevent accidental viewing or editing of a data file.
These security features are not foolproof, so be aware that a knowledgeable person intent on
doing harm could potentially circumvent E-DataAid’s security. Furthermore, E-DataAid’s security
features are designed specifically for an environment in which only one machine has E-DataAid
installed on it (i.e., one machine is designated as the “analysis” machine). If this is not the
environment, although this section may be found interesting, it is probably not applicable.
Applying or removing security from a data file involves the following steps:
1. Selecting an Administrator
2. Changing the Administrator’s password.
3. Opening the data file as an Administrator.
4. Applying or removing security from the data file.
5.3.7.1 Select an Administrator
In E-DataAid, security is applied to or removed from a data file by opening the file as an
Administrator. The Administrator has the responsibility of applying security to or removing
security from data files. To open the file as an Administrator, a user must know the
Administrator’s password for the machine on which E-DataAid is installed. As soon as E-DataAid
is installed, the Administrator should change the password from the default value.
5.3.7.2 Change the Password
When E-DataAid is installed, the Administrator’s password is “admin” (without the quotes). As
soon as E-DataAid is installed, the Administrator should change the password to something other
than the default. To change the password, use E-DataAid’s Change Password command on the
File menu to display the Change Password dialog. A data file need not be open in order to
change the password.
