Abstract:

A method, system, and computer program product for providing document security for procurement agents. The method commences by establishing user authentication credentials for at least two procurement agents. Then, initially granting limited access to a first set of documents where the first set of documents is initially under control of the first procurement agent (and initially inaccessible by the second procurement agent), and initially granting limited access to a second set of documents, where the second set of documents is initially under control of the second procurement agent. A procurement application receives an access request from the first user to access a document from among the second set of documents, causing the procurement application to confirm the first user authentication credentials, retrieve the document access rule for the first procurement agent, and allow/deny access by the first user to the document from among the second set of documents.

Abstract:

A printed circuit board for mounting in a housing, having a mounted connector for making connections with the circuit board through the housing includes a layer formed from electrically insulating material and a conductive structure formed on such layer which conductive structure is adapted to be connected to ground. A casing, also formed from electrically conductive material, is shaped to surround a portion of the connector and is electrically connected to the conductive structure so that electromagnetic radiation emanating from the circuit board will not pass through the connector. In embodiments where the connector is mounted on an edge of said circuit board, the casing surrounds all of but the open end of the connector. In a preferred embodiment the casing includes a top portion, connected to the conductive structure, for surrounding the top of the connector and a bottom portion, also connected to the conductive structure, for surrounding the bottom portion of the connector. In such an embodiment, it is preferred that the top portion include a plurality of legs.
