The Extended Authentication Process in the Environment of the Laboratory Information and Management System

Laboratory information systems have evolved from applications designed to simplify or eliminate routine processes. Their further development follows the trend of interconnection with intelligent laboratory equipment. Laboratories of primary research are specific in many ways and commonly available information systems cannot be deployed there. Development of a new lab information and management system should be designed in order to ensure not only safe and secured operation but also modular requirements. Elements of data security can be successfully implemented on the basis of studies and standards which deal with this issue on a general level. The area of security should be viewed in the context of the lab as the whole. The mentioned type of laboratories processes a sensitive material, creates compounds of nonresearched properties, which are studied and results are subsequently published. It is obvious that the environment has to be secured at all levels. The following article describes a possible solution.
