Key terms
- User data. Any data that the end-user of a particular system creates or owns.
- Username (login name, account name, handle, or, rarely, ID). The humanly-readable name of user account that the end-user utilizes to access that account. A username is an essential part of user data.
- Password (passcode). Any string of characters that is used to confirm user's identity. The NIST Digital Identity Guidelines defines a password as "the secret is memorized by a party called the claimant while the party verifying the identity of the claimant is called the verifier. When the claimant successfully demonstrates knowledge of the password to the verifier through an established authentication protocol, the verifier is able to infer the claimant's identity.
Script
- User data is any data that an end-user of a particular system, including CNM Cabin, creates or owns. This data may have several levels.
- For instance, you have created your username at CNM Cabin, but don't own that. This is a feature of this system; this feature can be changed only if the system's code is re-written or system's settings are changed. You can possibly open a new user account and pick up a new username, but your current account will keep the same name for its life being.
- At the same time, you have created your password and own that -- you can change it at any time through CNM Cabin. Similarly, you can manage your profile and preferences there.
- The overwhelming majority of your data such as your exam scores or wikipage edits are collected automatically, through the algorithms that systems administrators manage. While using CNM Cyber, you create that data, but may or may not be able to change it. By default, the data is timestamped is harder or impossible to change. However, a new action like a new wikipage edit can undo or reverse the previous action.
- On the other end, the system administrators can alternate your access permissions at any time. They may also change some, but not all of that data. For instance, the course teacher may override some of your exam scores. At CNM Cyber, product epics define who can manage the user data, what data can be managed, how it can be managed, and how it shall be secured.
What CNM Cloud Is is the successor lectio.
