Managing EncrypTight Users
64 EncrypTight User Guide
If your EncrypTight deployment includes ETEPs running software version 1.6 or later, entering a
password is optional.
If your deployment includes ETEPs with software previous to 1.6, or other models of PEPs, you
must enter a valid password.
If user authentication is not enabled, you are logged into the system immediately.
This feature is used in conjunction with strict authentication in your EncrypTight deployment. To learn
how to set up your system to use strict authentication with a Common Access Card, see “Using a
Common Access Card” on page 294.
U.S. DoD Login Banner
The U.S. DoD login banner contains the U.S. government-supplied text shown in Figure 16. The login
banner is disabled by default. When enabled, the login banner appears after a user enters the EncrypTight
login credentials. A user must acknowledge the terms of usage to successfully log in. The banner text
cannot be modified or replaced.
