What happens at runtime?
The user
logs onto the application
Visual
Guard connects to the security repository and retrieves the user's
permissions.
The Visual
Guard engine then modifies the application according to these permissions.
Example: When a window opens, Visual Guard may hide buttons and
filter data.

Implementation process:
- Add Visual Guard engine to your project and activate the security
(just a few lines of code required).
- Implement the Visual Guard login window (or use your own login
window).
- Create a security repository and declare your application in
this repository.
- Using Developer Workshop, developers define all the permissions
available for this application. As a result, a permissions catalog
is created. It will be used later (see step 6).
- The application is tested, compiled and deployed.
- Administrators use Profile Manager to create profiles and grant
them permissions from among those defined in the permission catalog.
Then those profiles are associated with users.
- No technical skill is required: Administrators can be super-users,
heads of departments, etc...
Note: If you already have a permission system, you should disable
it before using Visual Guard.
