Overview

In this evolving world of the internet, which grown exponentially, it is important to secure and safeguard our data or critical transactions from hackers. To ensure complete protection of the application from vicious ransomware or any other malicious malware, we have added an additional layer of security. A new ‘Enable Re-Authentication’ check box is introduced at the Catalog level of the Service Request module. 

On configuring the Re-authentication in the Application Setting and catalog level based on the configuration, a user must re-enter the credentials before logging an SR or approving an SR to confirm the authentication.
