We are faced with the same issue.  We want an external facing web page
but we don't want users of that web page from accessing any one else's.
An aproach we are taking is to direct the customer to a control panel
and restrict what he can see through Active Links.  We are still
discussing how we will allow the external to access the page, whether to
punch wholes in the firewall or use reverse proxy.  But, the customer
will have only one url he can access and only after he logs ins (he will
have to register with us first).  That web page will produce a control
panel.  Since the customer logged in, we will show him only his tickets
and, if he is part of a group, tickets pertaining to his group.  If he
tries to view a ticket submitted by someone else, it will fail our
qualification and will produce no records.

 

 

Hope this gives you some idea.

Subject: External customers viewing tickets

 

I would like to hear how others have reduced the risk of customers being
able to see another customer's records in Remedy.  We have external
customers that are wanting to view their tickets and related
information.  One large customer has various departments that it wants
to see only their departments information while the IT group sees
tickets for the entire company.  I thought I had this locked down with
filters on the customer and site name but someone found a hole by doing
a partial search.  I have fixed that issue but now I am tasked to find
the Best Practice for allowing customers to view tickets.  Any
suggestions are appreciated.
