Security

You can administer and authorize access to authenticated and public versions of MapInfo Stratus. Data can be shared between public and authenticated users, or confined to authenticated users only depending on the options chosen when you signed up for MapInfo Stratus.

The Account Management system is used to capture information about user accounts for MapInfo Stratus and allows users to be assigned to pre-defined roles. Using MapInfo Administration Console, you can assign permissions by role to map configurations, queries and find my nearest configurations.

With authorizations and permissions set up, a user who wants access to MapInfo Stratus has to be authenticated by a logging in process. If successful, access is allowed and a session is created. A logged in user will only be able to view maps, tables, or queries that they have authorized access to.
