What’s New in this Version – 2018R1 Release

This section provides a high-level overview of the enhancements included in the 2018R1 release that affect the functionality described in this document.

Password Retrieval via Email (GDPR Alignment)

In an effort to fully protect personal data and support GDPR, users will no longer be able to request their ComplianceWire password via email.

Note: We recommend that clients utilize an existing feature that allows users to reset their passwords through security questions or by having their users submit a request to their System Administrator outside of the system.

Self-Registration Screen

With 2018 R1, the usability of the self-registration screen has been enhanced to include a calendar picker for selecting values for custom date fields.

Page 5: Login - Training Environment · ComplianceWire System Admin Guide - Login (Version 2.4) | 5 Login Screen Launch Microsoft Internet Explorer by selecting the shortcut on the desktop

ComplianceWire provides two methods for users to get their passwords if they forget their existing passwords. Users can have:

their password e-mailed to them.

their password reset, thereby eliminating the need to have their password e-mailed to them.

Clicking on this link brings up the Forgot Password screen. This allows you to

request forgotten passwords via e-Mail or reset forgotten passwords.

Footer contains the following.

Multiple log-in and logos on home page (available upon request)

For clients with multiple and/or distinct companies, divisions, departments, or projects, a log-on page within ComplianceWire can display logos or taglines to differentiate between those entities. This capability is especially valuable for companies that use one learning portal to serve more than one user base. UL will work directly with a client to customize that portal based on specific needs.

Page 7: Login - Training Environment · ComplianceWire System Admin Guide - Login (Version 2.4) | 5 Login Screen Launch Microsoft Internet Explorer by selecting the shortcut on the desktop

ComplianceWire System Admin Guide - Login (Version 2.4) | 7

Additional login page text will display between the login body and footer for companies that utilize the corporate communications program.

ComplianceWire Login Credentials

IMPORTANT! Using multiple open browser sessions simultaneously can cause session information to be shared between the windows.

Access to ComplianceWire is protected by requiring the user to enter three distinct identification components (User ID, Password, and Company Code).

Enter the User ID, Password, and Company Code in the appropriate text boxes.

Only authorized individuals with a valid User ID, Password, and Company Code can log into the system.

If the User ID, Password, or Company Code is missing or invalid, an appropriate error message displays and the user is returned to the Login screen without gaining access to the system.

The rules governing usable passwords are defined on the Password Policies screen. See the Password Policies section in Chapter 9.

Note: UL offers interoperability for ComplianceWire to use user network User IDs and Passwords.

Click I Accept to accept the Terms of Use statement. A “Processing, please wait…” message displays while the system validates the User ID, Password, and Company Code entries and, if valid, grants the user access to the system. The application opens and brings up the Knowledge Center screen.

At initial login…

The User ID, Password, and/or Company Code are verified against the information in the database. This includes login and electronic signatures.

The system checks to see if the user’s password is marked as ‘expired’ or not. If a password has expired, the system will notify the user that his/her password is expired and prompt the user to change his/her password immediately. The user will be returned to the Login screen and NOT be allowed into the system until the user successfully changes his/her password.

Page 8: Login - Training Environment · ComplianceWire System Admin Guide - Login (Version 2.4) | 5 Login Screen Launch Microsoft Internet Explorer by selecting the shortcut on the desktop

ComplianceWire System Admin Guide - Login (Version 2.4) | 8

The system checks to see if the user’s account is marked as ‘locked out’ or not. If the account is marked as locked out, the system will notify the user that his/her account is locked and NOT allow the user to enter the system. Locked accounts may not gain system access until unlocked by an administrator or automatically by the system.

Note: Access to ComplianceWire can be limited to an established range of IP addresses. The authorized IP range

can be established at any time by UL.

The system will compare the IP address of the user’s computer to the allowed range of IP addresses established by the user’s company. If the IP address is not within the allowed IP set, the system will notify the user that he/she is not at an authorized workstation and NOT allow the user to enter the system.

User IP functionality is controlled by company preferences (OFF by default). Company Preferences are available through UL, and not directly within the application.

When the ‘Authenticate User IP Address’ preference is turned ON, the system will validate the User Login IP Address against the valid IP Address ranges specific by the company.

Because ComplianceWire is a web-based application, 128-bit Secure Socket Layer (SSL) is used to provide encrypted communications on the Internet.

ComplianceWire stores records in a secure SQL server database. Security features such as User ID/Password and security roles protect the records stored in the system throughout the records retention period. Additionally, passwords and electronic signatures are stored encrypted in the database, the database connection string is stored and retrieved from a protected area on the server.

One of two password related windows may display before gaining access to the system, depending on one of the following circumstances…

A password expiration period is set. The user will be notified that his/her password will expire in "x" days.

Clicking Continue opens the application and brings up the Knowledge Center screen.

The password has expired. Users will be prompted to change their password before gaining access to the system.

The current "rules" governing usable passwords display (informational only).

The user must know his/her Current Password before being allowed to change to a new password.

Page 9: Login - Training Environment · ComplianceWire System Admin Guide - Login (Version 2.4) | 5 Login Screen Launch Microsoft Internet Explorer by selecting the shortcut on the desktop

ComplianceWire System Admin Guide - Login (Version 2.4) | 9

The New Password must conform to the company defined password policies. These policies are defined on the Password Policies screen. See the Password Policies section in Chapter 9.

The user must Confirm New Password.

Clicking Change Password validates the password information and, if valid, presents a confirmation window.

Continue Login brings up the Knowledge Center screen. See page 27.

Note: Users accessing ComplianceWire via custom login screens will be unable to change passwords anywhere in

the system.

The Event log tracks unauthorized login attempts within the system, and reports when an account is locked or unlocked.

Single Sign On

The Event log tracks unauthorized login attempts within the system, and reports when an account is locked or unlocked. The Event Log is detailed in Chapter 10.

ComplianceWire supports single sign-on capabilities. See diagram on following page.

Note: By permitting the integration of ComplicanceWire with another user authentication system, the client assumes

responsibility for ensuring that such user authentication system is included in and is governed by the client’s quality system controls and that such user authentication system meets or exceeds the requirements of 21 CFR Part 11.

Single sign-on (SSO) capability is directly and exclusively provided though custom interoperability projects on a company-by-company basis.

ComplianceWire’s user authentication credentials and e-signature functionality can be integrated with an internet protocol used to look up information from a server.

Users will be able to enter their network ID and password to verify their ID/password combination as an authentication step and to record their e-signatures.

ComplianceWire sends user credentials to client authentication component.

Client authentication component authenticates user and sends response to ComplianceWire.

ComplianceWire receives response from client authentication component.

If the user is authenticated, ComplianceWire will grant access to the user and display the To-Do List.

If the user is not authenticated, the standard ComplianceWire invalid User ID or Password message displays.

ComplianceWire System Admin Guide - Login (Version 2.4) | 15

Browser Auto-Complete Prevention

Today, ComplianceWire does not restrict a browser’s ability to auto-complete a user’s stored User ID and Password. If a user elects to utilize their web browser’s auto-complete capability, their authentication data (User ID and Password) can be ‘pre-populated’ at login or e-signature completion in ComplianceWire.

Clients have historically relied on their company’s browser policies to disable the auto-complete feature and maintain Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) Part 11 compliance. This new ComplianceWire feature

will help make it easier for clients to adhere to the requirement in Part 11 that states: “… subsequent signings shall be executed using at least one electronic signature component

that is only executable by, and designed to be used only by, the individual.”

(21 CFR Part 11, Subpart C, Sec. 11.200).”

Although industry standards that govern search engines and website design dictate that auto-population is preferred, we recognize that it presents our clients with challenges maintaining (CFR) Part 11 compliance. In addition to the SOP’s, Guidelines and Browser policies that a company may have in place, we are taking measures to prevent browsers from auto-completion of Username and Password fields in ComplianceWire for native login, change password, and e-signature pages.

After the R1.2017 release, Learners and Administrators will be forced to manually type in their User ID and Password login credentials in the areas described below.

Note: It is recommended that clients continue using their SOP’s, Guidelines & Internal policies to support CFR Part 11 compliance.

Learner Functions

Login page

Change Password page

Class Sign-in sheet for an ILC

All forms that require e-Signatures

All Training Type completions that require e-Signatures

Because ComplianceWire is a web-based application, Secure Socket Layer (SSL) is used to provide encrypted communications on the Internet. 128-bit SSL encryption is used to protect all transactions transmitted over the Internet.

Logging into ComplianceWire

Login Step 1:

The Client Browser initiates an SSL connection with the Web Server.

Login Step 2:

The Client Browser sends the User ID, Password, and Company Code to the Web Server via the SSL Connection.

Login Step 3:

The Web Server sends the password through the ComplianceWire encryption routine. The encryption routine runs a 128-bit encryption algorithm on the password using a combination of a specific character string and the internal company id.

Login Step 4:

The Web Server compares the encrypted password to the encrypted password stored in the MSSQL database to verify the user login.

Entering/Updating User Data

User Data Step 1:

The Client Browser initiates an SSL connection with the Web Server.
