Organization Settings
The organization settings are located under "Settings" and the tab "Organization". The settings are divided into different areas: accounts, sign-in policy, identity providers, zones, and privacy.
Accounts
Select the rules for password length and expiration. Also select whether to prompt and force users to change their password when logging on or when a password expires.
- Minimum password length — the minimum number of characters in a valid password
- Password timeout — how long a new password is valid until it must be changed
- Password reminder interval — how often a user should be reminded to change their password if not enforced
- Enforce change of expired passwords — require that expired passwords are changed
- Enforce change of new passwords — require that new, assigned passwords are changed
Sign-in policy
Set the sign-in policy for your organization. There are five options:
| Policy | Primary credentials | Secondary credentials |
|---|---|---|
| Local | Password * | — |
| Client verification | Password * | Emailed verification code when logging on first time on a new client or with a new password |
| Password always | Password | — |
| One time password | TOTP via authenticator application | (Password **) |
| Two factor authentication | Password and TOTP | — |
* Unless locally saved, first time on the specific client, or if the password has changed
** First time on the specific client, or if the password has changed
Identity providers
There are possibilities to connect Synkzone to different external identity providers.
Generic OIDC
If your IDP supports generic OIDC, it can be used to log in to Synkzone accounts. For more information and setup instructions, contact Synkzone/the operating partner.
Swedish BankID
Synkzone offers the possibility to choose Swedish BankID as an alternative for personal identification and log on. To enable this for your organization, contact Synkzone/the operating partner.
Zones
If only administrators in an organization are allowed to create zones, no internal user will be able to create a zone of type "Personal".
In the case where personal zones are allowed, decide if external users should be able to create personal zones or not.
Note: the settings "Only administrators can create zones" and "External users can create personal zones" cannot both be true.
If personal zones are allowed, enter the storage size and maximum number of allowed personal zones.
Privacy
We recommend these to be left unchecked. It allows Synkzone/the operating partner to collect necessary information from logs to help during technical support. Synkzone/the operating partner will never have access to any files, data, or information stored in the system.
