SUBJECT:

Web Application Userid Services

Beginning Friday, May 26, 2000 firm login procedures used to access Web based applications through www.botcc.com will be enhanced to provide Userid services. Cookies must be enabled on each user’s web browser to access BOTCC’s web applications. This will include password updates, auto logout, and system lockouts caused by successive invalid sign-on attempts. Users can access Web applications by clicking the ‘Firm Login’ link located in the ‘Member Info’ section, then entering a valid web Userid and password into the login box. Once the Userid and password is authenticated a selection menu containing Manuals, Pay/Collect and Reports applications will appear. Active links will be displayed for each application a user is authorized to access. Users will be allowed to access web applications by clicking on the active links. The Reports applications, when selected will require further authentication by entering a valid ‘OTIS’ user name and password. Users still have the option of going directly to the Reports application by clicking the ‘Reports at BOTCC’ link located on the home page. Policies pertaining to user web based passwords are as follows.

• User passwords must contain six to eight characters.

• User passwords must contain a combination of alpha and at least two numeric characters. For additional security it is recommended that users include a special character as well.

• Password cannot be reused for 13 months.

• Passwords must change substantively from previous passwords (i.e. jingle12 cannot be changed to jingle13).

• Users will be locked out of web based applications after three unsuccessful login attempts.

• User passwords will be valid for a period of thirty-five days. At that time the password will expire and the user will need to create a new password. Three days prior to expiration the user will be notified at login of the upcoming expiration and offered an opportunity to change the password.

• Users who remain idle in BOTCC’S web applications for fifteen minutes will be prompted to reenter their Userid and password to continue.

• Users will be prompted to reenter their Userid and password after 8 hours in applications.

Volume 20 – Bulletin #161 Page 2

With this new functionality in place all Web application Users will be required to change their password on Thursday, June 1, 2000. To receive a web based user name and password or to request access to additional applications, please fill out the attached User ID and Password Update Form and submit it to the Business Systems Group via fax at (312) 768-0152 or by E-mail to BSG@botcc.com.
