Locking an Application

Applications can be locked to temporarily or permanently prevent their use without removing their configuration from the system.

This mechanism helps maintain security while allowing administrators flexibility in handling Application availability.

Locking and Unlocking Applications

  • 🔒Locking is typically used when an Application is compromised, or undergoing maintenance.

  • 🔓Unlocking restores the Application's ability to authenticate and interact with the system.
