This section describes the user authentication for PCM600. For IED user authentication, see the IED-specific cyber security deployment guidelines.
PCM600 supports working with authenticated and anonymous users. No authentication method is enabled by default.
It is not recommended to use PCM600 without authentication.
When PCM600 is started for the first time, a PCM600 administrator account has to be created and named. The password is not set by default. It is recommended to change the password immediately for the created administrator account.
Note: It is not recommended to use the administrator accounts by default. It is recommended to create limited user accounts that have privileges only for performing the necessary tasks related to the user role.
