LASsie is a library add-in for MS Access that offers form, report, control, and record-level security. It serves as an uncomplicated substitute for MS Access' built-in security system.
LASsie is a user-friendly Microsoft Access Add-On designed to enhance your Access application's security system effortlessly. It provides a simplified alternative to the deprecated User-Level Security found in the .accdb file format. With LASsie, you can easily restrict unauthorized access to forms, reports, controls, and sensitive records.
The security features of LASsie allows you to restrict or disable specific forms or reports, filter records, prevent unauthorized data updates, and even perform custom security functions, all of which are based on the user's sign on or user name. LASsie comes with a user-friendly sign-on form that prompts for login credentials such as the user name and password, and users can change their passwords via the password change form.
Additionally, the sign-on form can be bypassed, making it possible to use the user's windows login user name. Once the user's details are verified, LASsie loads the security groups that the user belongs to, based on the permissions/restrictions assigned to these groups.
LASsie differs from other high-end security applications in that it's a 'light' application security system. This means that a more sophisticated user could edit the underlying tables and adjust their security level. However, by hiding the LASsie tables and linking them in an external, encrypted database, the risk of such a breach can be minimized. That being said, LASsie is best suited for applications where users are relatively unsophisticated, or where application data is not of a highly classified nature.
In conclusion, LASsie is a cost-effective and user-friendly security solution worth considering if you're looking to safeguard your Access application's sensitive data. It comes with impressive features that help to restrict users' access to sensitive data or areas of the application, keeping your data secure based on the user's sign on or user name.
