# Access

**LIBSAFE** is a web application, and any browser of the most commonly available ones may be used, as long as it complies with the standards defined for a web browser; it is recommended to use **Chrome**, **Firefox**, **Opera**, or **Internet Explorer**. Nevertheless, the only browser officially supported by **LIBSAFE** is Google’s **Chrome**.

Access to the application needs of a user authentication with password, and is always done prior to the use of any part of it. Browsing to a non-login page redirects to this.

User and first password assignment are reserved for system administrators only.

Access may be validated both locally and through AD/LDAP. The second option will only be offered if configured in the system; and each user will only be able to choose the authentication method configured in the user’s record.
