Dealers Portal and Access
Intellinet has also developed a new and improved automotive dealer portal. The corporation of dealers and manufactures mainly focus on the areas of spare parts ordering, parts supply chain and warranty claims processing. These processes are usually done by sending documents with long lists of vehicles or spare parts order items. In the absence of any online automated method, manufacturers and dealers need to keep each others’ data and documents redundantly in separate systems and folders. This form of work is time taking and is ineffective, in which every time there are chances of many misunderstandings and errors.
A seamless integration of these business processes can be established through the automotive dealer portal. This automotive dealer portal can be operated by, manufactures, importer or wholesale dealers. The automotive dealer portal offers role-based and web-enabled user interfaces and functionality of Vehicle Management System, Sales & Distribution (SD) module and Warranty module – tailored for dealers. Dealers just need internet access and a folder to keep downloaded files safe.
High Security
Every good hacker story ends with the line: “and then he’s got root access to your network and can do whatever he wants.” But the story really doesn’t end there. This is just the beginning of the real damage that the hacker can inflict.Most information security entities concentrate on perimeter security to keep hackers away from gaining internal network access, the potential for real financial loss comes from the risk of hackers acting as authorized users to generate damaging transactions within business.
The continued integration of digital part catalogue only increases the risk of both hackers who break through perimeter security and insiders who abuse system privileges to misappropriate assets – mainly cash through fraud ways.Security in the e-business like integrated electronic part catalogue (EPC) world requires a unique way of thinking. Security is not just to control bits and bytes of network traffic, but about business transactions that exposes financial losses from systems, abuse and frauds.
Most organizations fail in their illustrated part catalog security implementations, because they implement systems with a plan. However, EPC projects are invariably over budget and behind schedule, so strict internal controls are often glossed over to keep costs down and make up time. Intellinet has developed strong security feature that are not present in other system software’s and this is the main reasons that makes it stand apart from others and gives the reason to choose Intellinet instead of others.
