LASsie
(Light Application Security) is a Microsoft Access Add-In that enhances
your Access application with a simplified user security system.
Intended as an alternative to Access’ built-in security, LASsie offers
a less complicated way to secure forms, reports, controls and certain
records from unauthorized user access.
With LASsie, you can:
- Prevent a user from opening specific forms or reports
- Restrict a user's ability to update data on a form
- Disable certain controls on a form for a user
- Filter certain records for a given user
- Incorporate a sign-on form into your application
- Optionally use network login username instead of sign-on form
- Add/edit/remove users and Security Levels
LASsie
is called "light" application security because it is not intended to be
a robust, high-end security application. In fact, a sophisticated user
could edit the underlying tables and change their own security level.
By hiding the LASsie tables, and/or linking to them in an external,
encrypted database, you could minimize the possibility of such
potential breaches, but you should understand that we do not guarantee
that such a breach will never occur. That being said, LASsie can serve
quite well as an application security system where users are relatively
unsophisticated, or where application data is not of a highly
classified nature.
Supports the 2007 Office system.
