Example interface
The example below illustrates how the interface works:
Business requirement
When a user attempts to access Bravura Security Fabric , and fails to authenticate, the following events should take place:
Search session data for previous failed authentication attempts by the same user.
If there is a previous failed attempt, send an email to a security officer, warning that the event may be an attempted intrusion.
Open a ticket, detailing relevant information such as the date, time, and user ID.
Interface details
This interface is implemented by defining one or more settings in the Manage the system (PSA) module for the event type LOGIN FAILURE where the setting’s value is the name of a program, or list of programs, to execute.
The event action setting is used to run a standard interface program – for example, Remedy ARS uses pxrem
– which executes the LOGIN FAILURE script procedure.
