If you are running the latest release of ICA-AtoM (version 1.3, available here), administrators now have the option to:
- enhance the security requirements for user passwords, to ensure they are strong.
- enhance the login process to force all authenticated user requests to https for more secure network communication (requires the user to have an SSL certificate)
