Security update

New security update live.

Security is of the highest importance to us. Everyday we put a lot of effort in keeping up with the highest and most recent security standards.

A recent pen test (where we let our databases, API, admin and other sensitive infrastructure voluntarely get hacked) was succesfull - For us that is, a little less for the hackers ;-). Consequently only minimal adjustments have been suggested for further improvement.

Following 2 adjustments have direct impact on users:

  • Auto log out after 2 weeks of inactivity: unlike before we will log you out not after 30d but after 14d of inactivity. Next time you use Accurat you'll have to log in again.

    Tip: use Accurat every week to avoid being logged out ;-).

  • Password check (not for SAML / SSO users): From now on we will check more thoroughly the quality of a password. Users that created their own Accurat password will still be able to keep using the same password. When creating a new password your browser (we cannot read your password) will check if your password is strong enough before it is accepted.

    Tip: if you doubt the quality of your password we suggest changing it here.

Other security measures concern actions against hackers that try guessing your password by trying 100X times. Also password lock after 3 months of inactivity, automatic access freeze after a predetermined time, user management, SSO login etc. remain in place.

Store & Network split into modules

After the well received split of the Brand & Category dashboard into modules we repeated the exercise for the Store & Network dashboard. 💥 

S&N is now divided into different modules logically grouped per type of insight. 👐

Quick recap 🧑‍🏫
Brand & Category: Consumer, brand & market insights on a brand level.

S&N Modules:

* Benchmark: Overview of locations and the current footfall of selected locations. 📈

* Traffic: Traffic in your and competitors stores. 🛣️

* Evolution: Deep dive into evolution throughout time for different metrics compared with competitors. (Such as dwell time, frequency, distance travelled..) 🏬

* Loyalty: Deep dive into client loyalty. Who do clients combine with? How is this evolving? How are competitors performing? 🛍️

* Visit transfer: The flows of visits from your competitors to your location (& vice versa) ↪️

New 'time based' audience parameters added

Additional parameters have been added to our audience builder, enabling you to create a whole array of new audiences 🧑‍🤝‍🧑.

Dwell time & visit time were added for category, brand and store (POI) visits.

Set the desired dwell time a client spends in a location of your choosing (your store, a competitors'..), a brand or a category. Along with other parameters you choose. The same goes for visit time to define early morning visits, late evening dwellers at your location or to split lunchers from diners. 

Work with your created audience througout the different dashboards 👨‍💻.
