Local custom scripting and security considerations
Jadu CMS comes with a custom scripting area, where in-house developers can create their own scripts using XHTML, CSS, PHP, etc. to utilise the various APIs provided by Jadu for custom development.
Using the same server as the Jadu XForms Professional instance provides the option to manage and develop your own bespoke integrations. Jadu can offer courses in development using Jadu technologies, details of which can be provided upon request
To address particular security issues in relation to integration tasks, Jadu XForms Professional includes the following features as standard:
- IP address access list restrictions (to lock access to e.g. the HTTP POST processing scripts to only come from an allowed IP address)
- Availability time locks (in case external systems are only available at certain times of the day)
- Maximum submissions per day per user configuration
- Configurable FTP Server details (username, password, port, folder, etc.)
- Audit trails and backups of interactions, with full exception handling
With forms that contain sensitive information, we recommend running the XForms interface in a secure environment, with secure transfer protocols between the systems.
