# Security

The Security tab of the Job Settings dialog is for configuring a password for the job. By setting a password for the job, you can prevent unauthorized users from viewing or editing the job.

When a job is assigned a password, that job may be stored on the currently connected vision system or ported to another vision system. However, when attempting to open a job that is password protected, an Enter Password dialog will be displayed, where the job password must be entered.

If the correct password is not entered, In-Sight Vision Suite will not allow you to connect to the vision system with the password protected job.

Note:

- You can remove password protection from a job by clearing the Job Password and Re-enter Password fields.
- In addition to protecting an entire job, individual components of a job can be protected, with a password required to open the individual component.
