Configuring security preferences
Securing access to the OPAC and especially the staff client is important to any
library. Koha's offers several ways of securing access:
Requires valid login ID and password for both OPAC and the staff client
Only staff users can access the staff client
Staff access to modules with the staff client can be restricted using
granular permissions
Access to the staff client can be restricted to IP address ranges
In multi- library installations, access to other libraries patron, circulation,
and catalog data can be prevented
Most security- related preferences are under the Admin tab.
