Abstract
A user authentication system enables control of access to historian data through a historian application. The user authentication system creates a user authentication directory for storing user authentication information. The system populates the directory with user authentication information. The system links the directory to a historian application and receives credential data from a user. The system grants access to the historian application when it determines that the credential data from the user matches a portion of the user authentication information on the directory.
