Initial setup tasks

The following implementation tasks are usually done during initial setup:

  1. Set up email notifications.

    Bravura Security Fabric actively notifies users about events that may require their attention; this is generally done through email. It is recommended that all users have email addresses configured.

    Ensure the email server and port are correctly configured on the Manage the system > Workflow > Email configuration page.

    See Email notification.

  2. Add at least one target system as a source of profile IDs.

    Add at least one target system that will be an authoritative list of users to be imported into Bravura Security Fabric . If supported, ensure that all users have email addresses configured on the target. At least one target system should be able to verify passwords for users.

    See Target Systems.

  3. Import users.

    Run auto discovery to import a list of users, their accounts and other attributes, from one or more target systems.

    See Auto Discovery and Users and accounts.

  4. Configure authentication.

    Ensure that the Authentication priority list and Identification priority list are configured on the Policies menu. This is required to allow users to access the main menu.

    See Login Process > Identification and authentication.
