Platform credentials

Finally, as a platform client, you sign on using “host level” credentials for authentication. This means a user account and password separate from any station user account. Consider it the highest level access to that host.
 
CAUTION: A new controller ships with default platform credentials that are widely known—and if left unchanged the controller is extremely susceptible to being hacked. During the startup commissioning process, you should always change platform credentials from defaults to something known only to your company and/or customers. In AX-3.8, measures were added to alert you (and other platform users) to any JACE running with default platform credentials. For related details, see Update Authentication.
