Secure your ArcGIS Monitor deployment

When you install ArcGIS Monitor, you will find the following:

  • Monitor initially has only one account, the initial administrator account that you specified when you set up Monitor. This is not an operating system account; it's an account that is used only for signing in to Monitor.
  • All administration operations are secure and can be performed by any user that is assigned an Administrator role.
  • All web traffic uses secure HTTPS protocol by default.

The topics in this section discuss how you can further modify your deployment's security settings.
