With the increased frequency of cyber threats and more staff working remotely, the 2021.1 release of IMAGINiT Technologies’ Clarity suite of products includes a range of new security features. BIM project managers now have greater control with task creation and automation, can access more insights through smart data and model reporting, and can engage disparate teams while ensuring the model data remains secure.
Enhanced security advancements include:
- Secure Project Visibilityenables Clarity administrators to limit unauthorized team members from seeing projects marked as “secure”.
- File Browse Restrictions & Helpersensure that individual users do not automatically gain greater access to browse network files by limiting the ability to cut and paste network paths and replacing exact server paths with generic drive names.
- Post Task Action Securitygives administrators more control over the launching of scripts.
- Disaster Recoveryis made simple with timed back-ups explicitly designed for companies without dedicated IT teams running the full SQL Server.
“The best design automation and collaboration tools now incorporate features that protect companies from invasive and costly cyber threats,” says Bill Zavadil, chief operating officer, IMAGINiT Technologies. “Protecting data is critical as information is integrated into other applications throughout the workflow and is routinely exchanged between larger distributed teams.”
IMAGINiT Clarity 2021.1 is compatible with Autodesk Revit 2021. It includes integrations with Procore, BIM Track, Google Drive, Microsoft Teams, SharePoint, and OneDrive, as well as enhancements to task automation and data reporting such as:
- A new monitoring service saves valuable CPU processing time by identifying tasks that repeatedly fail and alerts essential team members.
- External OData Links quickly share data within other applications such as Microsoft Power BI and Excel through the simple click of a link.
Clarity 2021.1 provides new features to enable design teams to work securely, efficiently, and make better decisions to achieve maximum model health and performance. New features continue to save customers more than 200 man-hours per project per year while minimizing costly issues such as model corruptions or data breaches. This improved efficiency resulted in a major milestone last year when total man-hours saved across all Clarity customer projects surpassed 1,0000,000 hours.
