Key terms

User data. Any data that the end-user of a particular system creates or owns.
  • Username (login name, account name, handle, or, rarely, ID). The humanly-readable name of user account that the end-user utilizes to access that account. A username is an essential part of user data.
  • Password (passcode). Any string of characters that is used to confirm user's identity. The NIST Digital Identity Guidelines defines a password as "the secret is memorized by a party called the claimant while the party verifying the identity of the claimant is called the verifier. When the claimant successfully demonstrates knowledge of the password to the verifier through an established authentication protocol, the verifier is able to infer the claimant's identity.

User data is any data that the end-user of a particular system, including CNM Cabin, creates or owns. This data may have several levels.
For instance, you have created your username at CNM Cabin, but don't own that. This is a feature of this system. You can possibly open a new user account and pick up a new username, but your current account will keep the same name for its life being.
You have created your password and own that -- you can change it at any time through CNM Cabin. Similarly, you can manage your profile and preferences there.
The word, Cabin, in the service's name, indicates that this service provides you with a separate and private space where you can interact with CNM Cyber as a whole.
The overwhelming majority of records such as your exam scores or wikipage edits are collected automatically, through the algorithms that systems administrators manage. While using CNM Cyber, you create that data, but may or may not be able to change it. By default, the data is timestamped is harder or impossible to change. However, a new action can undo or reverse the previous action.
The system administrators may change some of that data. For instance, the course teacher may override some of your exam scores. Your access permissions can always be alternated.

System-User Roles is the successor lectio.
