    IMPORTANT:
    If the user wants to install FTASecurity and DataView on the same machine, then in order to protect the log files, it is strongly recommended to use a different non-root user account for installing FTASecurity and DataView. This ensures security and that no sensitive information is exposed to external components beyond trust boundaries.
    NOTE:
    Ensure that the user account used for installing DataView has administrator privileges.
The following are the minimum software third-party requirements for installing DataView in the Windows environment.
