Camms is pleased to bring you the Quarterly Product Update Notification for the Platform Update

This quarter we've got exciting enhancements to improve your user experience within the system. Below features will be activated on a regional basis. Below are the activation dates for each region

Introduction of a new common login page, replacing the multiple product-specific login pages previously in use. This modification provides seamless access to all Camms products through a single, unified login interface, simplifying the user experience and enhancing security.

This update is applicable for clients who use forms authentication.

Note: Camms. Talent doesn’t support this feature yet; it will be integrated to Common Login in Q4 release.

How does it work?

• Users will be redirected to common login page when the user enters a URL of a product; upon successful authentication the user will be redirected to the relevant product.

• If the user enters the URL of the common login page, upon successful authentication the user will be redirected to product portal where all the purchased products will be shown. (i.e.https://camms.com.au/strategy/portal)

This enhancement improves the strength of the password policy on forms authentication. The password must consist of a minimum of 8 characters and include at least an uppercase letter, a lowercase letter, a number, and a symbol.

How does it work?

• When the password is changed/reset, the password must meet the criteria below. This is applicable to Manage user area, Change password within my settings across products.

  • Must consist of minimum of 8 characters 

  • Must include at least an upper-case letter

  • Must include at least one lower case letter

  • Must include at least one number 

  • Must include at least one symbol.

• As the user types the password, the conditions that are fulfilled will be highlighted in green.

This modification allows the configuration of the account lockout policy. The account will be locked for a specified period after a certain number of failed attempts. Once the account is locked, the user will not be able to log in to the product. The user will be able to log in again after the configured lockout period is over.

How does it work?

• The account will be locked out for the configured time after the configured number of failed attempts. Upon each failed attempt it will indicate the number of attempts left.

• Once the account is locked, the user will not be able to login to the product. User will be able to login to the account after the configured lockout period is over. It will indicate the time remaining to unlock the account.

How to configure?

• Please contact Camms support to enable this feature.

• To enable this feature, please provide the following three values to the Camms support team:

  • Account lockout threshold – Number of allowed failed attempts (Recommended threshold is 3 failed attempts) 

  • Account lockout duration - The account lockout duration in minutes (Recommended duration is 5 minutes)

  • Reset account lockout counter – The duration (in minutes) to reset the lockout counter” (Recommended duration is 1 minute)

This modification allows the configuration of the password expiry period. Once the password expires, it must be reset by the user.

How does it work?

• Users will have to change the password after the configured period of time.

• When the valid number of days for the password is expired, upon successful authentication, the user will be prompted with a message "Your password has expired and must be changed."

• User will be redirected to a page where the user should enter the current password and a new password to reset the password.
