About web modules

The Bravura Security Fabric user interface is provided by a set of self-contained CGI programs and web apps known collectively as modules.

The options on the Modules menu enable you to configure the behavior of the Bravura Security Fabric web modules and apps. The configuration settings affect the Front-end, self-service modules, and administrative modules.

You require the "Configure modules" administrative privilege in order to access the Modules menu.

Types of modules

Modules are classified by their purpose and by the users who can access them:
