Security Included

In ZonePro SQL the Security Module is included with the Base Module. Security is built into ZP SQL. You have no choice but to log in with a password. Why? Because your data is now on the internet! Security is vital. The security in ZP SQL functions identically to ZonePro 32 in that you assign Access Levels to each password to determine what functions each user is allowed to access within ZP. At the moment the conversion process I have does not convert existing passwords from ZP 32 to ZP SQL so you have to re-establish that info in ZP SQL. A security issue I am wrestling with at the moment is what to do with web pages that access ZP SQL data. The web development language I am using has an elaborate security setup of its own which is not especially compatible with the existing security files used by ZP SQL. I may go with two different security systems: one for use the traditional ZP SQL interface and one for use with web pages.
