Feature description

AdminPortal Whitelisting in Payway is a security focused feature that when enabled requires all IP-addresses that should have access to AdminPortal (Payway Administration) to be added to the whitelist by you.

Why should you enable AdminPortal Whitelisting?

To ensure unauthorized access to AdminPortal (Payway Administration) one step is to block access to this site.

This prevents

  • Access via a Brute force attack on a non-whitelisted network.
  • Access via leaked user credentials on a non-whitelisted network.

This does NOT prevent

  • Access via a Brute force attack on a hijacked whitelisted network.
  • Access via leaked user credentials on a hijacked whitelisted network.
