If a user logs into an ARIS client, the password will be encrypted and stored in configuration files. If you consider this as a security issue, you can force ARIS not to save passwords at all. If you do so, all stored passwords will be deleted automatically.
Warning
If you change settings in the arisloader.cfg file, the settings will be lost after an update setup.
All stored passwords will be removed from configuration files. This affects all ARIS severs in your system. Not only the ARIS sever from which the ARIS client was downloaded.
Prerequisite
You have write access to the ARIS installation directory.
Procedure
Open the arisloader.cfg file (<ARIS installation path>\server\bin\work\work_abs_<s, m, or l>\base\webapps\abs\downloadClient\config).
Set the value of DoNotStoreConnectionPasswords to true:
DoNotStoreConnectionPasswords=true
Save the changes.
Warning
Lorsque vous effectuez une installation de mise à jour, toutes les modifications faites manuellement dans les fichiers CFG ou XML sont perdues.
Enregistrez localement les fichiers de configuration modifiés et documentez vos modifications. Après une installation de mise à jour, vous pouvez facilement comparer votre fichier enregistré et copiez la ligne modifiée dans le fichier de configuration mis à jour.
Download clients do not store any passwords for any server connection. This affects all ARIS servers in your system. All encrypted passwords are deleted from all configuration files.
