Nuance believes that data security is best maintained by limiting access to various types of
information to authorized users only. Although no software product can completely guarantee against
security failure, Dragon software contains configurable password features that, when used properly,
provide a high degree of protection.
We strongly urge current owners of Nuance products that include optional system password features
to verify that these features are enabled! You can call our support line if you need assistance in
setting up passwords correctly or in verifying your existing security settings.

About Nuance Management Center
Applies to: Dragon desktop products only
Nuance Management Center allows Dragon administrators to manage all Dragon clients from a single
central console. The console, called the Nuance Management Center (NMC) console, allows you to do
the following:
l Configure options for clients at the site and group level
l Centrally manage your Dragon product licensing
l Share data, like words and auto-text commands, with Dragon clients and across other Nuance
products
l Audit user session events
l Monitor client usage and trends through reporting
You can choose to install, configure, and maintain your own on-premise Nuance Management Center
(NMC) server, or you can use the Nuance-hosted server in the cloud.
Using Nuance Management Center with your Dragon installation is an optional feature that you enable
in the Dragon client.
For information on installing and configuring Nuance Management Center, see the Nuance Management
Center Server Installation and Configuration Guide.

Chapter 1: Introduction
Physical architecture
Applies to: Dragon desktop products only
Nuance Management Center is a standard Microsoft ASP .NET MVC web application that is hosted
by Internet Information Services (IIS). The Nuance Management Center components include the
following:
l NMC serverStores application data, such as organizations, sites, groups, and users. It
also stores transient data, such as log files.
l NMC consoleAllows NMC administrators to create and manage objects, like groups and
users, assign licenses, run reports, and more. The NMC console does not have permanent
data storage. However, it does use a file share for temporary data storage to support file
uploads and downloads.
l Database instance—Stores license information, partial speech profiles, application usage
information, and audit data.
l Dragon clientsUsers log in to their client computers where Nuance Management Center is
installed and connect to your NMC server to access shared words and commands.
Initially, you install the NMC server, NMC console, and the database instance on the same server.
However, you can optionally move your database instance to a separate database server after the
installation. Your NMC server can be one of the following:
l A single physical machine (smaller installations)
l Multiple physical machines load-balanced by a network traffic switch (larger installations)

Applies to: Dragon desktop products only
About your installation
On-premise
You can optionally host your own Nuance Management Center (NMC) server on premise. You install
the NMC server and Nuance Management Center (NMC) console, and then create all objects in the
NMC console yourself.
Nuance-hosted
If you don't host your own NMC server on-premise, you use the Nuance-hosted NMC server in the
cloud. A Nuance administrator performs your initial setup and creates the following objects for you:
l Your organization
l A default site
l The NMC Administration group
l An NMC Administrator user account and password
Nuance then sends you an email with your NMC console URL. You can rename the initial objects as
appropriate for your business. You then create all remaining objects, like sites and groups, yourself.
You should also change the password for your NMC Administrator user account. For more information,
see “Changing your NMC console password” on page 13.
Note: If you plan to implement Active Directory single sign-on authentication, do not change the
password for your NMC Administrator user account until after you have configured single sign-on.
For more information, see the "Preparing for your Active Directory single sign-on configuration"
chapter in the Nuance Management Center Server Installation and Configuration Guide.
NMC console setup considerations
Applies to: Dragon desktop products only
Consider the following before you begin creating objects and changing settings in your NMC console.

Saved credentials
You'll need to determine whether you'll allow
Dragon to remember user account passwords
before you install Dragon clients. Generally, you
should not allow Dragon to remember passwords
when your organization has multiple users who
share the same computer using the same
Windows login. You should enable the Do not
allow saved credentials setting to prevent this.
Caution: You must enable this setting before
users log in to the Dragon client for the first time.

Keywords
Determine whether your auto-text commands
should include the default leading and trailing
keywords that Nuance Management Center
automatically adds to auto-texts created in the
NMC console.
If you don't remove them, users must say the
leading or trailing keyword in addition to the
spoken phrase for their auto-text command to
invoke it.

alphabet
If you are using the Dragon Law Enforcement
edition, determine whether your site uses a
custom phonetic alphabet for license place
dictation. By default, Dragon uses the NATO
alphabet for plate mode dictation. Optionally, your
site can use a different phonetic alphabet by
editing the
icao.ini
file. You upload the modified
file in the NMC console.

Managing federated relationships for Central Authentication
Applies to: All products using Central Authentication
A federated relationship is one that is maintained between enterprises. To implement Central
Authentication, you create a federated relationship between your organization and Nuance.
27
Nuance Management Center Administrator Guide
The Central Authentication tab is visible only on Nuance cloud-hosted systems. This grant is only given
to Nuance administrators. Customers will only have read only access. Customers cannot create or
configure federated relationships. For write-access to the tab, you must have the Manage Central
Authentication grant. For read-only access to the tab, you must either have the View Organization
grant, or be an administrator with any super user grant.
Customers can update/renew an existing federated relationship with a custom SAML request signing
certificate if they have the Manage Request Signing Certificate grant.
For specific instructions on enabling Central Authentication in your environment, and for a more detailed
feature overview, see the Nuance Management Center Server Installation and Configuration Guide.
To enable machine-to-machine authentication:
If selected, enables server-to-server communication. This type of communication establishes a trusted
connection between your company's server and the Nuance Central Authentication portal by
authenticating your server rather than a user.

About groups
A group is a set of similar users within a site. For example, a group could consist of users in one
department, or users with similar roles. All users in a group share the same privileges, grants, and
default Dragon client settings.
Your organization might choose to have more than one Administrator group. For example:
l SuperusersCan execute all actions in the NMC console.
l License administratorsCan create, grant, and revoke licenses.
l Group administrators—Can determine the settings providers in each group require.
l Help desk—Have only view access to the NMC console information.
If you are using a Dragon desktop product, you can configure administrative settings, auto-formatting
settings, and other client settings at the group level. When you apply settings at the group level, the
settings are applied to all users in that group.

Nuance Management Center Administrator Guide
About user accounts
You create one user account for each NMC administrator and Dragon user. You create user accounts to
allow NMC administrators to log in to the NMC console, and to allow users to log in to the Nuance
product on their client computers. If you are using single sign-on authentication, you create user
accounts that match each user's Windows login.
After you create user accounts, you then assign them to groups. You must also assign one or more
licenses to each user account to allow them to access different Nuance products.
About dynamic user profiles
Applies to: All non-medical products
When users first log in to the Dragon client with their user account and password, Dragon prompts them
to create a new user profile. Dragon requires users to have one user profile per user account and region.
After creating a user profile, Dragon then uploads the user profile settings, such as region, accent,
preferred vocabulary, and microphone selection, to Nuance Management Center.
A dynamic user profile is a new profile that Dragon creates automatically when a user logs in to Dragon
on a different computer where they have not yet created a user profile. This allows users to dictate on
any Windows computer where Dragon is installed without having to run through the New User wizard on
that computer. Dragon creates the user profile using the settings saved with the original user profile.
Dragon creates dynamic user profiles only when Nuance Management Center/NMS mode is enabled
and users log in to more than one computer. By default, Dragon creates dynamic user profiles in the
%APPDATA%\Nuance\NaturallySpeaking15\Users\[NMSUser_GUID] folder.
There is no manual setup or configuration required for dynamic user profiles.

Viewing IDP unique identifiers
About the IDP unique identifier
A unique identifier is assigned to each user account when users log in to a cloud-hosted client
application configured for a federated login through Central Authentication. The unique identifier is sent
as a claim by your external Identity Provider (IDP) and stored upon successful authentication. The
identifier ensures that users in your Active Directory who have multiple email addresses are correctly
matched to the appropriate user accounts in Nuance Management Center.
The unique identifier is a read-only value that is visible in the NMC console and you cannot modify or
delete it. You also cannot add new identifiers. When unique identifiers change, Nuance Management
Center replaces the old value with the new value automatically.
Unique identifiers are currently assigned only for cloud-hosted client applications where a federated
login is configured through Central Authentication and a claim for the users unique identifier is passed.
Identifiers are not assigned when native NMS authentication is in use.
Implementing the IDP unique identifier
To allow Nuance Management Center to assign unique identifiers to user accounts, you must have
done the following:
l
A federated relationship must exist for your organization.
For information on configuring a federated relationship, see the Central Authentication chapter
in the Nuance Management Center Server Installation and Configuration Guide.
l
Your IDP administrator must add a new claim for the unique identifier in Auth0.

About the Roaming feature
Applies to: Dragon Professional, Dragon Medical Network Edition only
The Roaming feature is an optional feature that allows users to dictate on different Dragon client
computers where Dragon is installed without having to create separate user profiles for each computer.
Users can dictate on different computers in their office, or even computers in different geographical
locations, like at work and at home. With the Roaming feature enabled, each user has a single Roaming
user profile stored in a central network location. Users use this profile on each computer where they
dictate. Dragon saves acoustic data to the network location when users save changes to their Roaming
user profile.
The Roaming feature:
l
Allows users to use Dragon even when the network directory that stores Roaming user profiles
is unavailable. Dragon simply opens the Local Roaming user profile.
A local cache stores user profile information offline when the network is not available.
l Minimizes network traffic. If a Local Roaming user profile already exists on a specific
computer, Dragon downloads only updated contents when the user opens the profile. Dragon
also uploads only updated contents when the dictation session ends.
l Provides username and password protection on Roaming user profiles if HTTP Roaming is
configured.
l Allows use of Citrix Smooth Roaming feature to allow users to move between computers and
complete work started in a different location. (Dragon Medical Network Edition only)
For more information on Roaming user profiles, see “About Roaming user profiles” on page 68.
For Roaming feature setup and configuration information, see “Roaming feature setup checklist on
page 71.

About Roaming user profiles
Applies to: Dragon Professional, Dragon Medical Network Edition only
For more information on the Roaming feature and setting it up in the NMC console, see About the
Roaming featureon page 67 and “Roaming feature setup checklist on page 71.
About
You use Roaming user profiles when the Roaming feature is enabled.
Roaming user profiles are stored on a central network storage location.
A Roaming user profile consists of the following:
l Master Roaming user profileA user profile stored on a network
storage location accessible to all client computers on which users
dictate.
l Local Roaming user profile—A local copy of the Master
Roaming user profile on the client computer. When a user opens a
Master Roaming user profile from a central network computer,
Dragon transfers a copy of it to the user's local client computer.
Dragon stores the user's changes made during dictation in the
Local Roaming user profile, and then later synchronizes them with
the Master Roaming user profile. For more information, see About
Roaming user profile synchronization” on page 70.
You dictate with Roaming user profiles as you would with non-Roaming user
profiles.
Optional? Yes.
Number to create One or more.
Maximum
allowed
Unlimited.
Disk space
requirements
Each Master Roaming user profile requires 25 MB hard disk space on the
client, plus the following:
l 8 MB for each vocabulary
l 18 MB for each dictation source
l 1000 MB for acoustic data
Dictation
sources/Audio
devices
You can use one or more audio devices with each Roaming user profile.
Choose from the following:
l Headsets
l Hand-held microphones
l Digital recorders
Backups Dragon does not back up Roaming user profiles. Your system administrator
must back up Master Roaming user profiles from their network storage
location.

users" topic in the Dragon client Help.
Storage l Master Roaming user profiles—There is no default storage location
for Master Roaming user profiles. You determine an appropriate
network storage location for your Master Roaming user profiles.
l
Local Roaming user profilesThe default storage location on client
computers for Local Roaming user profiles is:
\AppData\Local\Nuance\NS15\RoamingUsers\<display
name>\<username>
where <display name> is the network storage location for Master
Roaming user profiles, and <username> is the Local Roaming user
profile name.
69
Chapter 7: Roaming users
About Roaming user profile synchronization
Applies to: Dragon Professional, Dragon Medical Network Edition only
About
Dragon synchronizes Local Roaming user profiles with their Master
Roaming user profiles automatically. Dragon saves changes to the Local
Roaming user profile and then synchronizes the changes to the Master
Roaming user profile when a user does any of the following:
l Saves a user profile
l Switches user profiles
l Closes a user profile
l Exits Dragon
When the user dictates on a computer currently connected to the network,
the synchronization occurs immediately after one of the above actions is
taken. When the user's computer is disconnected, Dragon saves changes in
the Local Roaming user profile. Dragon later synchronizes the changes with
the Master Roaming user profile when the user's computer reconnects to the
network and the user reopens his or her profile.
What Dragon
does during
synchronization
During synchronization, Dragon does the following:
l Copies words added during dictation from the Local Roaming user
profile to the Master Roaming user profile vocabulary.
l Removes words from the Master Roaming user profile that were
deleted from the Local Roaming user profile.
l Copies acoustic data from DRA or NWV files from the Local Roaming
user profile to the Master Roaming user profile, where the data
becomes available to the Acoustic Optimizer.
l Copies any acoustic optimization performed on Master Roaming user
profiles to the Local Roaming user profiles.
l Copies custom commands created using the MyCommands editor to
the Master Roaming user profile.

About licenses
Your organization purchases licenses for each Nuance product that you use. For example, if you're
using Dragon Professional Group, you purchase one license for each user who dictates with Dragon,
and one license for each administrator who requires access to the NMC console. You import the
license key in the NMC console, and then assign licenses to your user accounts. Each user account
must have one license for each Nuance product that they use.
Each license instance can be one of two types:
l AccountLicense that you can grant to users.
l Enterprise—License that you grant to an organization. Any user in the organization can use
the application. When a user logs in to the client application with an enterprise license, an
account license is created automatically for tracking purposes.
You can only grant licenses to users in the same organization as the license.
Thirty days before a license is due to expire, Nuance Management Center notifies you through a
message in the NMC console. For information on viewing these messages, see Messages on page
90.
To purchase additional licenses, or to renew expiring licenses, contact your Nuance account
representative.

Keywords
About keywords
Keywords are default leading and trailing words that Nuance Management Center automatically adds to
all auto-texts created in the NMC console. With default keywords, users can only invoke auto-text
commands by saying the leading or trailing keyword in addition to the command's spoken phrase. For
each language Nuance Management Center supports, there is a default leading keyword, a trailing
keyword, or both.
For example, suppose there is a leading keyword of "insert" for United States English (en-US). Suppose
also that a user creates an auto-text command with a spoken phrase "CompanyAddress". To execute
this command in a Nuance product, the user must say "Insert CompanyAddress".
Keywords affect all auto-texts created in your entire organization. To allow users to invoke auto-text
commands by simply saying the command, you can remove the default keywords.

Auto-texts
About auto-texts
Disclaimer: The auto-text command feature is not designed for the use of PHI, PII, or
credentials. Using an auto-text command for such purposes is strictly prohibited.
Auto-text commands allow users to quickly insert pre-defined content in their dictation, such as
addresses. Auto-texts can contain text, graphics (varies by client), and variables. You can create or
import auto-texts at the site, group, or individual user account level. When you create auto-text
commands at the site or group level, those commands are available to all users in those sites and
groups. Nuance clients download new auto-text commands when users next log in.
Users can also create their own auto-text commands in the Nuance client. If users create their own
commands, they are stored on the NMC server, but they are available only to the users who created
them.
Note: Auto-text features vary by client. Check client documentation for supported auto-
text features.

Commands
About commands
Disclaimer: The commands features are not designed for the use of PHI, PII, or
credentials. Using the commands features for such purposes is strictly prohibited
You can create auto-text commands in the NMC console at the site or group level, making them
available to all users in those sites or groups. You can also create them at the user level, making them
available to specific users. In addition to auto-text commands, other commands include the following
types:
l Step-by-stepControls applications and performs multi-step tasks, like opening an
application and pressing keyboard keys.
l
Advanced scripting—Performs virtually any function on the computer with voice commands.
Scripting commands require familiarity with programming languages, such as Microsoft
®
VBA.
Note: Advanced Scripting commands are applicable to Dragon Professional and Dragon
Medical Network Edition products only.
You cannot create step-by-step or advanced scripting commands in the NMC console. You cannot
share these command types with all users. Instead, users create step-by-step and advanced scripting
commands locally in the Dragon client. Dragon then uploads them to the NMC server. When users log
in to different client computers, Dragon downloads the commands, making them available on each
computer where users log in to Dragon. The commands are available only to the users who created
them.
Users can also create macro recorder commands on their Dragon client computers, but they are
available only on the computer where the user created them. They are not available across all
computers where the user logs in to Dragon.

About Words
Custom words are words that you add to Dragon's vocabulary to improve Dragon's recognition of
uncommon words and phrases. You can create words at the site, group, or user account level. When
you create words at the site or group level, those words are available to all users in those sites and
groups. When you create words at the user level, they are available only to the users for whom you
created them. Dragon clients download new words when users next log in.
Users can also create their own words in the Dragon client. Custom words remain available only to the
user who created them on the local computer where they were created. However, if you enable the
Upload custom words site setting in the NMC console, custom words are uploaded to the NMC
server. This makes the words available on all computers where that user logs in to Dragon. Custom
words are available only to the user who created them.

Command sets
About Command Sets
A command set is a group of custom commands that you share with all Dragon client computers. To
create a command set, a Dragon user exports custom commands from their Dragon client. An NMC
administrator then imports the .DAT file in the NMC console. When Dragon client users next log in,
Dragon retrieves the command set from the NMC server.
A command set may include:
l Auto-Texts/Text and Graphic commands
l Step-by-Step commands
l
Advanced Scripting commands
Note: Advanced Scripting commands are applicable to Dragon Professional and Dragon
Medical Network Edition products only.
Command sets are available for each Dragon user on all computers where they log in to Dragon. Users
can view their command sets in the Command Browser.

Encrypt patient information
When healthcare providers dictate, the Dragon client saves

allow the NMC server to process dictated audio and
transcribed text. If a provider corrects any of the dictated text,
the Dragon client stores interim files related to these
corrections automatically in .enwv files.
If selected, Dragon encrypts these interim .DRA and .enwv
files before storing them in user profile directories to help
ensure patient privacy. Due to the restrictions mandated by
privacy regulations (such as the Health Insurance Portability
and Accountability Act (HIPAA) in the United States and EC
95/46 Directive in Europe), only Dragon can open these
encrypted .DRA and .enwv files, and only for its internal use.
Note: DragonPad can never open these encrypted files.
If deselected, Dragon does not encrypt these files. You might
choose not to encrypt these files if you already have
safeguards in place to protect your data. For example, if your

Format street
addresses
If selected, enables postal address formatting. For example, if you say "49
orchard lane boston massachusetts oh two four four six," Dragon enters "49

Some addresses can be hard for Dragon to interpret. For example, Dragon could
interpret "Two Hundred Forty Fifth Street" as 245th Street, 200 45th Street, or
240 5th Street. In this case, Dragon uses context to determine what you meant.
Sometimes, using the word "and" can help. For example, saying "Two Hundred
And Forty Fifth Street" eliminates 200 45th Street as a possibility.
If your user profile region setting is UK or Canada: This option also enables
formatting for UK postcodes and Canadian postal codes.
If your user profile region setting is United States: You can enable UK
postcodes and Canadian postal codes from the UK and Canadian postcodes
option in this dialog box.

Appendix B: Creating the Forgot Password email template
Creating the Forgot Password email template
Applies to: On-premise customers only
If users forget their NMC console password, they can reset it on the NMC console login screen.
Nuance Management Center sends users an email message with a link to reset their password. The
link is valid for one hour.
To allow NMC console users to reset their password, you must:
l
Ensure you have provided email addresses for all user accounts. Nuance Management
Center sends the reset password link to this email address.
For more information, see “Changing user account details on page 59.
l
Create the Forgot Password email template.
For more information, see Creating the template below.
l
Upload the template to the NMC console.
For more information, see Uploading the template below.
Creating the template
The Forgot Password email template is an HTML document with the appropriate content and link for
the email message. You can create the HTML document in any HTML editor. Use the following as the
default template:
<html>
<body>
<h1>Nuance Account Reset
</h1>
<p>To complete your account reset, please visit the <a id=""nmsresetpwdlink""
href="""">NMS Account Reset Page</a>
</p>
</body>
</html>
The NMC server replaces the href for nmsresetpwdlink with the correct URL to your Nuance
Management Center Forgot Password page. For example:
<a id="nmsresetpwdlink" href='https://nms-qaa42.nu-
ancehce.com/nmchtml/PasswordResetPage?key=20c17b4a-eea3-4847-86b3-
7e2e8fee9f84'></a>
You can customize the template information as appropriate for your organization.
Uploading the template
1.
Click the NMC menu icon ( ), and then select System Settings.
The System Settings dialog box appears.
2. Expand the Nuance Management Server section.
3.
Click the Browse button next to the Password Reset - Email field.
