Security implications

If you ask Justis to remember your User ID, and your organisation uses IP recognition to validate users, then anyone who has access to your computer can use Justis. If you do not want other people to be able to access Justis from your computer without your permission, then do not ask for your User ID to be remembered.

IP recognition

If you access the Justis service from an IP address that has been registered with Justis Publishing, then you do not need to enter your Password; you will be authenticated by a combination of your User ID and an IP address that belongs to your organisation.

Security implications

What is an IP address?

Each computer that is connected to the Internet has a unique numerical code assigned to it, called an IP address. If you register the IP address of your computer (or all of the IP addresses on your network) with Justis Publishing, then we can recognise your computer when you want to access Justis and allow you to use the service without entering your User ID and Password.

IP addresses consist of four blocks of 1–3 numbers from 0 to 255, such as 123.45.78.90. You can specify a range with first and last numbers (e.g. 123.45.78.90–175), or with an asterisk to represent a complete block (e.g. 123.45.78.*).

Windows users can find their IP address in the TCP/IP Properties section of the Network Control Panel. Macintosh OS X users can find their IP address on the TCP/IP tab in the Network section of System Preferences. If you need help in finding your IP address, please ask your Network Administrator.

If you access the Internet via broadband or by dialling the telephone number of an ISP (Internet Service Provider), then each time that you connect or dial you are probably assigned a random IP address from the range owned by your ISP. In this case, it is not possible for you to use IP recognition. There are some exceptions; Demon dial-up access provides a fixed IP address, and some broadband providers will provide a fixed IP address for an extra charge.

Forgotten your Password?

If you have forgotten your Password, please click the “Can’t remember your password?” link. A reminder of your Password will be sent to the email address that you use as your User ID. This service is automated, and so is available at all times.

Please don’t forget to Sign out when you have finished using the Justis service.
