What Types of Security are there in MicroStrategy Agent 7.1?
In a MicroStrategy Agent 7.1 environment, security can be regarded at three levels:
- Database
- Network and operating system
- Application
MicroStrategy Agent 7.1 provides the means to implement new security features while allowing full implementation of existing enterprise security measures.
Database security:
In addition to any security features provided by system servers, MicroStrategy Desktop offers the capability to limit database access through security views (any one user may have access to only a portion of any one table).
Network and operating system security:
MicroStrategy Agent 7.1 allows full implementation of existing network security (which affects computer access) and operating system security (which affects file and application access).
Application security:
MicroStrategy Desktop provides four modes for users to authenticate user access to the system:
- Standard (system login ID and password)
- Trusted (Windows NT login and password)
- Pass through (metadata login ID and password)
- Guest authentication (server login and password)
Server control:
In a MicroStrategy environment, there are two types of access control:
- Privileges (actions that any one user or user group may perform within the system)
- Object access (objects, and access conditions to those objects, that any one user or user group has)
Web security:
MicroStrategy Web provides security features particularly suited to internet environments, including:
- Special login access for casual users
- Full integration with Windows NT trusted access
- Integration with MicroStrategy Intelligence Server access control
