Security, Access control
An information retrieval and management system needs to be secure:


  • Intranet security: the search engine indexer agent scans the Intranet. It should not be a security problem, it must not offer a backdoor to intruders.
  • Data security: a search engine must strictly apply the security regulations defined by the enterprise data administrator.
  • Controled access to documents : a search engine should only display to the user the documents that he/she has right to view.


  • REFLEXION and the Intranet security
    A secure indexer agent:


  • As an enterprise software, REFLEXION indexes documents through the Intranet file system and databases, complying with the security rules defined by the network and data administrator.
  • To do so, REFLEXION scans the network under a user identity assigned to it by the Administrator.
  • That user needs only read rights on the network shared directories and data.
  • The REFLEXION indexer does not move or modify any document, and does not store any textual data.
  • The indexes and dictionaries created by REFLEXION are encrypted.


  • REFLEXION enforces access control to documents
    A user of REFLEXION will only see the documents that he/she is allowed to see:


  • Before displaying the list of responses to a query, REFLEXION checks for each document that the identified user has a read right on that document.
  • Unauthorized documents are not displayed in the list of results on the user's computer.
  • And, last precaution (normally unused), the user's click on a document of the list will not open the document if the user has no right to read it.
  • REFLEXION checks the user's identity ("authentication") and rights ("authorisation") given to that user by the Administrator.
