WNYRIC DW Security Policy
• Current security provides “district” level access to data.
• This means a user has access to all data for the district, charter school, BOCES, or non-public school.
• We recommend access is limited to administrators. • Each educational institution has a limited number of
users dependent on the type of institution. For public school districts, the number of users is 3.
• Additional users beyond the limit can be purchased for $150/user .
WNYRIC DW Security Process
• To establish access for a new user within a district, charter school, non-public school, or BOCES, please access the on-line form appropriate for your organization.
• Forms are found via the WNYRIC On-Line Forms Library.
WNYRIC DW Security Process• Completed, signed, scanned forms are sent to the
WNYRIC DW Support team via [email protected]▫ The form is reviewed for completeness. ▫ The number of authorized users are checked.
• If within limits, a user access request is submitted . ▫ Once access is established, an automated e-mail is sent to the
user advising him/her to establish password and password security questions.
• If the current number of users exceeds the limit, we will e-mail the DDC to advise him/her of this. ▫ The DDC can request deletion of an existing user or request
authorization for additional user (s). ▫ For WNYRIC districts, additional user charges will be
requested via a budget increase letter coordinated by the WNYRIC CSR assigned to the district.
Common Problems Encountered With Security
• User already exists under another e-mail address. • User existed in another district; user ID was not
inactivated.• To minimize these problems, we have updated the
security forms to include prior user information.
Common Problems Encountered With Security
• User left the district, charter , school or BOCES but still has access.
• We have created a report called the WNYRIC Data Warehouse Audit Report – Current Users for use by administrators to monitor security.
• Please use prior to sending new requests for user access.
• Please run on a regular basis to ensure current users should have access.
Common Problems Encountered With Security
• User forgets password.• User forgot to set up password security questions• User can access links on left side of WNYRIC Dataview
