New Login Security Features in ICA-AtoM 1.3!
If you are running the latest release of ICA-AtoM (version 1.3, available here ), administrators now have the ability to:
 * force users to create strong passwords (using a mix of upper and lower case letters, numbers, and symbols),
 * force all authenticated user requests to use secure network communication ( Wiki page for https), and
 * limit incoming requests for all Administrator functionality to a static IP range.

By default, these settings are turned off, and must be turned on by an administrator in Administer > Settings > Security.
 * For more information on using these new login security features, please see the Administer > Settings > Security page of the User Manual.
 * See, Security Documentation for more information about ICA-AtoM:
 * Web application (AtoM) security
