Installation and Configuration of Real Application Security Administration (RASADM)

Perform prerequisites, installation and configuration tasks, then run the RASADM application.

Prerequisites

Before you install RASADM, make sure that both the Oracle Database instance and Application Express are up and running.

The following prerequisites are required:

  • Oracle Database release 12.1.0.1 and later

  • Application Express release 5.0 and later

Installation

You can download RASADM from OTN, install it to create the RASADM schema and the RASADM APEX workspace, which sets up APEX security features. The installation creates a schema user named RASADM. It configures the external principal store (LDAP) if the LDAP host is provided..

Perform the following steps to install RASADM:

  1. Download RASADM from OTN (Oracle Real Application Security (RAS) Download).

  2. Unzip the downloaded zip file into a directory that you select.

  3. In the unzipped directory, change directories to the installer directory.

  4. Connect AS SYSDBA into SQL*Plus and run the following PL/SQL script to install RASADM:

SQL> @rasadm_ins.sql

When you run the installation script, the following output displays:

.
. Oracle RASADM installation
.............................................
. 
. Creating schema user with privileges
.

RASADM provides data realm preview capability. If enabled, the administrator
will be able to view the data in any user table in the database.
Enable data preview capability? [No]

Enter a password for the RASADM admin user(admin): password
. Creating APEX workspace and admin user.
.
. Importing APEX application
.
Enter LDAP host name if you use external user and group (press ENTER if not):hostname
. Post configuration
.
. Done. Please review rasadm_ins.log for any errors.
.........................................
.
 

The installation script does the following:

  1. Creates a schema user named RASADM with a locked account and expired password and grants the user limited privileges, which are required to compile certain APIs.

  2. The data realm preview capability will be granted to the RAS role RASADM_POLICY_ADMIN, which in-turn is granted to the administrator.

  3. Uses the Application Express Administrator's UI to create the RASADM workspace and imports the RASADM application code into the RASADM workspace, and then sets some Application Express security features.

  4. Configures the external principal store (LDAP). If the LDAP host is provided, a network ACL is created to grant the RASADM user CONNECT and RESOLVE privileges on the given LDAP host and port. The RASADM user can also choose to configure external principal store (LDAP) from the RASADM UI, after the installation. In that case, it is the RASADM administrator's responsibility to grant the network ACL manually to the data set.

Note:

To uninstall RASADM, as the system administrator, run rasadm_unins.sql.

Configuration

You must configure the admin user who can log into RASADM as part of user management and then perform Application Express and workspace configuration, which performs SSL setup.

The following sections describes the configuration tasks:

User Management

This is the admin user who can log into RASADM. The RASADM run-time user is a Real Application Security user with password, who can directly logon to the database. The user must have a Real Application Security role granted (RASADM_POLICY_ADMIN or RASADM_USER_ADMIN or both roles) in order to access RASADM.

RAS provides two administrative roles - RASADM_POLICY_ADMIN and RASADM_USER_ADMIN.

The RASADM_POLICY_ADMIN is a Real Application Security role, which has the privileges to perform Policy Administration; for example, a Real Application Security user with this role can create policies, privileges, privilege classes, namespaces, and regular and dynamic roles. The user cannot create Real Application Security users.

The RASADM_USER_ADMIN is a Real Application Security role, which has the privileges to perform User Management; for example, a Real Application Security user with this role can create users, and regular and dynamic roles. The user cannot use the rest of the features provided by RASADM.

However, both roles have the privileges to view reports on all pages.

The RASADM user can be created using Real Application Security Admin API (in PL/SQL) at the database.

The RASADM expects two kinds of users. One who can perform only Policy Administration tasks and the other who can perform both Policy and User Administration. The former needs to be granted with RASADM_POLICY_ADMIN Real Application Security role and the latter needs to be granted both RASADM_POLICY_ADMIN and RASADM_USER_ADMIN Real Application Security roles.

See Also:

Real Application Security Admin API (in PL/SQL) for the syntax and required privileges in Oracle Database Real Application Security Administrator's and Developer's Guide.

Enabling Data Realm Preview Capability

You must be sure to enable Data Realm Preview Capability to a user with RASADM_POLICY_ADMIN Real Application Security role outside of the installation script, if the option chosen is No during installation, execute the following as SYS user.

You should explicitly grant SELECT privilege on the table to the RASADM_DB_POLICY_ADMIN role on which you want the preview capability, else you can grant SELECT ANY TABLE system privilege to the RASADM_DB_POLICY_ADMIN role.

In addition, to bypass the Security Checks of a Real Application Security Policy you can grant EXEMPT ACCESS POLICY privilege to the RASADM_DB_POLICY_ADMIN role.

You can also grant the above mentioned privileges to any user defined Database role, which then has to be granted to RASADM_POLICY_ADMIN Real Application Security Role.

Creating RASADM Run-Time User

Only the SYS administrator can create additional RASADM direct logon application users by running the following PL/SQL scripts that create this admin user with the Real Application Security role RASADM_POLICY_ADMIN or RASADM_USER_ADMIN or both roles.

The two types of users that the SYS administrator can create are:

  • An Administrator user who can perform both Policy Administration and User Administration.

    -- Create runtime user to perform both Policy and User Administration for RASADM
    DECLARE
      rg_list XS$ROLE_GRANT_LIST;
    BEGIN
      xs_principal.create_user(name=>'admin');
      sys.xs_principal.set_password('admin', 'welcome1', XS_PRINCIPAL.XS_SALTED_SHA1);
      rg_list := XS$ROLE_GRANT_LIST(XS$ROLE_GRANT_TYPE('RASADM_POLICY_ADMIN'),XS$ROLE_GRANT_TYPE('RASADM_USER_ADMIN'));
      xs_principal.grant_roles('admin', rg_list);
    END;
    /
    
  • An Administrator user who can perform only Policy Administration.

    -- Create runtime user to perform both Policy Administration for RASADM
    DECLARE
      rg_list XS$ROLE_GRANT_LIST;
    BEGIN
      xs_principal.create_user(name=>'admin');
      sys.xs_principal.set_password('admin', 'welcome1', XS_PRINCIPAL.XS_SALTED_SHA1);
      rg_list := XS$ROLE_GRANT_LIST(XS$ROLE_GRANT_TYPE('RASADM_POLICY_ADMIN'));
      xs_principal.grant_roles('admin', rg_list);
    END;
    /
    

Implementing the Password Policy

You must implement a password policy for admin users.

The admin user's password policy is supported directly by Real Application Security.

See Also:

The section about the procedure for creating direct login users, creating profiles, and setting passwords in Oracle Database Real Application Security Administrator's and Developer's Guide.

Application Express Instance Level Configuration

Application Express and workspace configuration is the configuration that should be done at the Application Express instance level by the Application Express administrator or at the workspace level by the workspace administrator.

This configuration involves performing SSL setup. Oracle strongly recommends that SSL be used:

Note:

As part of the installation script for RASADM, Application Express is modified at the Instance Level to set Allow Real Application Security to Yes under the Security Settings.

See Also:

See the chapter about managing application security in Oracle Application Express App Builder User’s Guide for more information.

Running the RASADM Application

Based on the kind of user logging into RASADM, certain UI components like buttons will be invisible to the non-privileged user. For example, all buttons for User Management will be invisible to the user who does not have the privilege to perform these actions.

The following URL is just an example and the real URL is based on your current Application Express configuration. Make sure the correct URL is provided. Then log in as the RASADM administrator using the same password given during the installation.

To run the RASADM application, you would enter in your browser a URL like the following: https://www.example.com:8080/apex/f?p=rasadm.

Oracle recommends that you turn on HTTPS.

You can log in as the RASADM admin user or any user created after installation using the password given during installation.

For More Information

The Real Application Security discussion forum and Real Application Security Documentation provide more information.

See the following resources for more information:

About Data Security with Oracle Database Real Application Security

Effective security requires defining which application users, applications, or functions can have access to which data, to perform which kinds of operations.

Thus, effective security has these three dimensions:

  1. Which application users (principals)

  2. Can perform which operations (application privileges)

  3. On which data (data realms)

You define (1) principals, (2) application privileges, and (3) objects (data realms) in relation to these three dimensions, respectively. Principals are users and roles, where users are application users, and a role can represent attributes of an application user, system state, or a piece of code.

Principals are granted application privileges in ACLs. These ACLs are then related to the data by defining a data security policy that protects rows and columns of table data.

Using RASADM, you create Real Application Security data security policies as follows:

  1. Understand the basic elements of a data security policy described in Terminology Used in Real Application Security.

  2. Understand how to join these basic elements together in a step-by-step fashion described in the Design Phase.

  3. Create the data security policy using RASADM in a step-by-step fashion described in the Development Flow.

Terminology Used in Real Application Security

Defines terminology for you to better understand Real Application Security concepts used in the RASADM application.

An application user is an application end user identity that is known to the database. These users are schema-less and do not own any database objects or resources. The application user creates application sessions to the database through the middle tier and can create application sessions to the database directly through the direct logon application user account. Using RASADM, you can create application users.

An application privilege is a named privilege to control execution of application-level operations. The operations can be on data or application artifacts, such as UI artifacts representing workflow tasks or buttons and pages in a Web application. An application privilege can imply other application privileges including SELECT, INSERT, and DELETE of the Real Application Security DML privilege class.

An application role represents a group of application users who have been granted the role. Within an access control list (ACL), privileges can be granted to a role, which has the same effect as granting those privileges to all users who have been granted the role. An application role can be only granted to application users or application roles.

A dynamic application role is an application role that is enabled only under certain situations, for example, when a user has logged on using SSL, or during a specific period of time, and so on. You cannot grant dynamic application roles to other application roles or users, but you can grant other application roles to dynamic application roles.

A privilege class is a scope for a set of application privileges. A privilege class defines a set of privileges that can be granted within access control lists (ACLs) of a data security policy.

An access control entry (ACE) either grants or denies application privileges to a particular principal (application user or application role).

An access control list (ACL) is a named list of privilege grants. Oracle Real Application Security ACL allows various constraints on the privilege grants such as ordered negative grants. If the ACL you create relies on a set of custom application privileges that you define in your own privilege class, then you can only grant privileges on that privilege class.

A data realm is a collection of a logical set of rows in a group of related application tables associated with ACLs. A data realm represents an application-level resource or business object and is defined using a SQL predicate. The authorization is defined in the ACL, which specifies what privileges are granted to which principles on the data set. RASADM supports the following data realm types:

  • Regular - protects a data set when you specify in a SQL predicate the part of the data set to be protected and the ACL to be used to perform authorization.

  • Parameterized - protects a data set when you specify in a SQL predicate a parameter to be used and in the ACL the values of that parameter to be granted permission. For example, consider department=&DEPT_ID, where the parameter name DEPT_ID follows the symbol &. In this case, the parameter name DEPT_ID is associated with different department IDs. This enables you to create the grant based on department IDs without having to create many department ID-specific data realms for each DEPT_ID value.

  • Inherited - known as the master-detail policy uses the master object's policy to protect the detail object by pointing to the master object. You specify the parent schema and parent object (column) as master, then build the 1:1 relationship between the parent column and either the child column (detail) object or a constant value. You can build the relationship using multiple parent = child pairs. With multiple parent = child pairs, the constant value must work with other parent = child pairs as a join condition to form the 1:1 relationship. You can optionally enter a when condition if you want to further protect child columns with the parent's object policy.

A data security policy protects data realms by associating them with ACLs. Database records, both at the row and column level, can be protected using the fine-grained access control. The data security policy performs the following two functions:

  • Data realm authorization.

    Data realm authorization specifies the data that you want to protect in a data realm of one or more rows and associates each data realm with one access control list (ACL). The ACL specifies which kinds of access by means of application privileges are granted or denied to particular principals. This controls access to rows of the data realm to form what is called a data realm authorization. A given ACL protects a given data realm and controls access to particular application users or application roles (called principals).

  • Column authorization.

    Column authorization optionally applies additional application privileges to protect a particular column. This is useful in cases where you need to add column authorization security for sensitive column data in which to associate additional custom application privileges.

In summary, the application user who logs in will only be allowed to perform operations including DML on records within the data realm, including individual rows of data, based on the application privileges in its associated ACLs. Thus, the data security policy is composed of data realm authorization and column authorization that protects the data realm by only allowing access to application users who have application privileges in the associated ACLs.

An authorization service checks if a privilege is granted to a user.

Session namespace attributes are collections of attribute-value pairs under an application namespace with an associated access control policy. Often, an application needs to use the same namespace across different application sessions. You can create a namespace template to define and initialize a namespace. A namespace template defines the namespace and its properties. It is used to initialize the namespace in an application session.

An application session is an application users' session that corresponds to application users' security contexts, roles, and namespace attributes, in the database.

Design Phase

The design phase involves identifying all tasks an application performs that require application privileges to control data access.

For example, during the design phase, the application policy designer must identify:

  1. The set of application-level operations that require access control.

  2. The rows and columns of tables and views that can be accessed as part of the application-level operations.

  3. The set of actors or principals (users and roles) that can perform these operations.

  4. The runtime application session attributes that identity rows of a table or views. These attribute names are used within the predicates that selects the rows to be authorized, and their values are set during the execution of the application.

Development Flow

In the development phase, as the RASADM administrator, you use RASADM to develop your data security policies.

Follow these steps to develop your data security policies:

  1. Create the corresponding application users and roles. If using an external directory server, create the application users and roles or user groups in the directory server. Follow this procedure to create these principals natively in the database:

    1. Create the application roles and grant application roles to application roles, if needed. See Creating Application Roles.

    2. Create the application users and grant application roles to the application users. See Creating Application Users.

    3. Configure the directory server to fetch the users and role, when principals from external stores are used. See Configuration.

    4. For users and roles in the external Directory Server, manage parameter settings for using RASADM with a Directory Server. See Manage Settings.

  2. Create each privilege class that you plan to use to develop the security policies for your application. Each privilege class consists of one or more appropriate privileges that you define and can reference in an ACL and also grant them to the application users and application roles. Each privilege class authorizes by means of ACLs the required application-level operations of a data security policy. See Creating Application Privilege Classes.

  3. Create one or more session namespaces that can be used across different application sessions. This consists of defining for a session namespace its set of properties (application attributes) and its associated access control policy or ACL that you can choose from a list or create. See Creating Namespaces.

  4. Create the data security policy by associating each data realm with an ACL, so as to create both data realm authorization and column authorization as needed. This process consists of four parts:

    1. Policy Information - You choose the object to be protected and the privilege class to protect it as well as specify the policy name and select the policy owner. See Step 3 in Creating Data Security Policies.

    2. Column Level Authorization - You choose the name of the column to be protected and select the privilege to be granted to access the column, which is associated with the privilege class you selected in Step 3a. See Step 4 in Creating Data Security Policies.

    3. Data Realm Authorization - You create a SQL predicate to represent the data realm to be protected and add each to a data realm grant list. Then you choose or create the ACL to protect the data realm. Next, create privilege grants to be added to a privilege grants list consisting of each principal and whether it is allowed authorization or denied authorization by selecting the appropriate privilege. See Step 5 in Creating Data Security Policies.

    4. Apply Policy - You can apply, remove, enable, or disable the data security policy you are creating and choose to specify certain apply options, allowing the owner of the table or view to bypass this data security policy, and whether to enforce statement types for this policy. See Step 6 in Creating Data Security Policies.

You can navigate to following tabs to perform tasks:

Note:

Names are case sensitive for all Real Application Security entities that are created using the RASADM application.

  • Policies - Create, update, and delete data security policies including adding and deleting data realms and column authorizations; and for each defined policy, set its status to enable it, disable it, apply it, or remove it.

  • Privileges - Create, update, and delete privilege classes, including adding application privileges to or deleting application privileges from a privilege class.

  • Namespaces - Create, update, and delete namespaces, including adding application attributes to a namespace or deleting application attributes from a namespace.

  • Users - Create, update, and delete application users, including granting application roles to application users and revoking application roles from application users.

  • Roles - Create, update, and delete application roles and dynamic application roles, including for application roles, adding role grants to or deleting role grants from an application role; and for dynamic application roles, adding object privilege grants to or deleting object privilege grants from a dynamic application role.

  • Settings - Update parameter settings for using Real Application Security Administration with a Directory Server.

Using Real Application Security Administration, you can perform the following tasks for developing a data security policy for securing an application:
  1. Manage Application Users

  2. Manage Application Roles and Dynamic Application Roles

  3. Manage Application Privilege Classes

  4. Manage Data Security Policies to Secure Data Rows and Columns in the Application

  5. Manage Namespaces

  6. Manage Settings

The topics that follow describe in detail how to perform each of these tasks using Real Application Security Administration.

Manage Application Users

From the Users tab, the RASADM user creates, updates, or deletes application users that are known to the database. The application user creates application sessions to the database through the middle tier and can create application sessions to the database directly through the direct logon application user account.

Managing application users includes the following topics:

Creating Application Users

From the Users tab, create each application user you need to add to your data security policy for this application.

To create an application user:

Manage Data Security Policies to Secure Data Rows and Columns in the Application

From the Policies tab, create, update, or delete data security policies that secure data rows and columns for tables or views for this application.

Managing data security policies includes the following topics:

Creating Data Security Policies

From the Policies tab, create the data security policy to secure data rows and columns for tables or views for this application.

To create a data security policy:

  1. Click the Policies tab.

  2. On the Policies page, click Create.

  3. Policy Information. Enter information in the following fields. A red asterisk denotes a required field.

    • Policy Owner - Click ( ^) to select a policy owner.

    • Policy Name - Enter a name for the data security policy. Names are case sensitive.

    • Description - Enter a brief description for the data security policy.

    • Privilege Class - Click ( ^) to select a privilege class. Or click NEW to create a new privilege class, or click MODIFY to update the selected privilege class.

    • Protected Object's Schema - Click ( ^) to select the name of the object's schema to be protected.

      Note:

      Only the authorized schemas are shown in the list of values. You must grant the SELECT privilege on the target object if a specific schema is not shown.

    • Protected Object - Click ( ^) to select the object to be protected.

    Click Next to continue after entering information in the Policy Information section.

  4. Column Authorization. Enter the following information to create a column authorization:

    • Column - Click ( ^) to select the name of the column to be protected.

    • Privilege - Click ( ^) to select a privilege to be applied to the column. The privilege must already have been created. The list of privileges that appear are those associated with the Privilege Class you selected on the Policy Information page in Step 3.

    Click Add to add the column authorization to the Column Authorization Created list. Repeat this step to add additional column authorizations.

    Click Next to continue after entering information in the Column Authorization section.

  5. Data Realm Authorization. Enter information in the following fields:

    • Name - Enter the name of the data realm. Names are case sensitive.

    • Description - Enter a brief description about this data realm.

    • Realm Type - Select the type of data realm:

      • REGULAR - Allows you to create a data realm or set of data associated with an ACL, in which the data set is defined by a SQL predicate and the authorization is defined in the ACL. The ACL specifies what privileges are granted to which principals on the data set. For a REGULAR data realm, specify the SQL predicate and an ACL.

        For example, if you want to create a data realm for the DEPARTMENT table with the ID of 60 in the HR schema, you would specify a SQL predicate of DEPARTMENT_ID=60. The defined ACL would grant the SELECT privilege to the principal EMPLOYEE for the principal store DATABASE and also grant the VIEW_SALARY privilege to the principal EMPLOYEE for the principal store DATABASE. This would allow only the employees for this department with the ID of 60 to view their own salary.

        ACL

        Enter the following information:

        ACL Name - Click ( ^) to select an ACL name. Or, click NEW to create an ACL. Or select an ACL name and click MODIFY to modify the ACL.

      • INHERITED - Also known as master-detail, allows you to use the master object's policy to protect the detail object by pointing to a master object, so you do not have to create another duplicate policy on the detail object. For an INHERITED data realm, you must choose the Parent Schema and Parent Object and optionally enter a When Condition. The When Condition is used to further filter the child table records that could meet the parent to child relationship. The parent to child relationship is defined by giving parent.column = child.column.

        For example, using the HR schema, if you want to create a master-detail policy between the DEPARTMENTS parent table and the EMPLOYEES child table, you would specify HR as the Parent Schema, DEPARTMENTS as the Parent Object and enter 1=1 for the When Condition. Then, for Realm Inheritance, you would select DEPARTMENT_ID(NUMBER) as the Parent Column, select COLUMN NAME as the Child Type, then select DEPARTMENT_ID(NUMBER) as the value, then click Add. The Realm Inheritance list will show the entry: (HR.DEPARTMENTS) DEPARTMENT_ID= (HR.EMPLOYEES) DEPARTMENT_ID, which establishes the parent = child pair join condition to form the 1:1 relationship.

        Enter information for the following fields:

        Parent Schema - Select the name of the parent schema as the master object.

        Parent Object - Select the name of the parent object as the master object.

        When Condition - Enter a predicate to further filter the child records that you want to be protected by the parent's object policy or use Predicate Builder to create the predicate.

        Realm Inheritance

        Enter information for the following fields:

        Parent Column - Select the parent column.

        Child Type - Select the child type. If COLUMN NAME is selected, click ( ^) in the adjacent field to choose the column name. If VALUE is selected, enter a value in the field to the right.

        Click Add to add this realm inheritance to the list.

        Repeat this process to add more realm inheritances to the Realm Inheritance list.

        Realm Inheritance - Lists the realm inheritance relationships already created.

        Data Realm Created - Lists the created data realms.

      • PARAMETERIZED - Allows parameters to be used in the realm's SQL predicate, such as department=&DEPT_ID. Note the use of the symbol & preceding the parameter name to represent the parameter. With a parameterized data realm, multiple "value-ACL" can be given to one parameter, which in turn, allows that parameterized data realm to be instantiated as multiple regular data realms, so you do not have to create multiple regular data realms. For a PARAMETERIZED data realm, you must specify the SQL predicate and an ACL.

        For example, if you specify DEPARTMENT_ID=&DEPT_ID,. the parameter name DEPT_ID is associated with different department IDs, which are each granted permission. This enables you to create the grant based on department IDs without having to create many department ID-specific data realms for each DEPT_ID value.

        ACL Parameters

        Enter information for the following fields:

        ACL - Click ( ^) to select an ACL name. Or, click NEW to create an ACL, or click MODIFY to update the selected ACL.

        Parameter Name - Enter a parameter name or click ( ^) to select a parameter name from the list. The parameter name is automatically extracted from the predicate and appears in this list.

        Parameter Type - Select the parameter type: NUMBER or VARCHAR.

        Parameter Value - Enter the parameter value.

        Click Add to add this ACL parameter to the list.

        Repeat this process to add more ACL parameters to the ACL Parameters list.

        ACL Parameters - Lists the ACL parameters that are already defined.

    • SQL Predicate - Click ( ^) to select a SQL predicate. Or, click (>) to expand the Predicate Builder field and enter information for the following fields:

      • Column Name - Click ( ^) to select a column name. The list of columns from which to select are those associated with the Protected Object you selected on the Policy Information page in Step 3.

      • Operator - Click ( ^) to select an operator.

      • Value - Enter a value. The value field will auto-complete to automatically populate values for selection that match the value entered. For the parameterized data realm, once & is entered, the previously defined parameters are automatically populated from which you select the one you want.

      • AND/OR - If needed, click (v) and select AND or OR to further develop the SQL predicate.

      • Predicate Construction - As you construct the SQL Predicate, it will be constructed in this field and provide you feedback as to whether the predicate is valid and complete to assist you in this operation.

      Click Preview to test the SQL predicate. Inspect the query results that display. If the results are satisfactory, click Apply to add the predicate to the SQL Predicate field.

      Click Next to add the data realm to the Data Realm Authorization list.

      Repeat this process to create additional data realms and to add them to the Data Realm Created list.

      In the Data Realm Created list, click ( ^) or click (v) to reorder the evaluation order for each data realm. The first data realm in the list is evaluated first, the second one is evaluated next, and so on.

      To delete one or more data realms from the Data Realm Grant list, select them, and click Delete.

    ACL

    To create an ACL, on the Access Control List (ACL) section, enter information for the following fields:

    • ACL Name - Enter the name of the ACL. Names are case sensitive.

    • Description - Enter a brief description for the ACL.

    • ACL Inheritance - Click (>) to expand the field. Enter the following information:

      • Parent - Click ( ^) to select a parent ACL.

      • Inherit Mode - Choose Extended or Constrained.

        Extended means extending ACL inheritance (OR with ordered evaluation). This option dictates that the ACEs are evaluated from the bottom of the inheritance tree to its top, from child to parent.

        Constrained means constraining ACL inheritance (AND) requires that both the child and the parent ACL grant the application privilege so that the ACL check evaluates to true.

      For Privilege Grants, enter the following information:

      • Principal - Click (<-) to specify search criteria to find the principal, then select the principal. For search criteria, specify the Principal Type as Role or User, and Principal Store as Database or External, and then click Search. Select the principal from the return list. Note that the word Database mentioned here means the principal store for the Real Application Security application user and role.

      • All Except - Select this option to grant all privileges to the principal except the one specified or leave this option deselected to grant or deny only the specified privilege.

      • Privilege - Click (v) to select the application privilege.

      • Grant Type - Choose Grant to grant this application privilege to this principal or choose Deny to deny this application privilege from this principal.

      • Start Date - Click the calendar icon to select an effective start date for this privilege grant or leave the field blank. No start date means this privilege grant is always effective.

      • End Date - Click the calendar icon to select an effective end date for this privilege grant or leave the field blank. No end date means this privilege grant is always effective. If you specify a start date, you must specify an end date.

      Click Add to add this privilege grant to the ACL.

      Repeat this process to add another privilege grant to the ACL.

      In the Privilege Grants list, click ( ^) or click (v) to reorder the evaluation order for each privilege grant. The first privilege grant in the list is evaluated first, the second one is evaluated next, and so on.

      To delete one or more privilege grants from an ACL, select them and then click Delete.

    Click Apply Changes to create the ACL.

    Note:

    At this point, if you click Cancel to cancel creating the data security policy, the ACL you just created is not associated with a data security policy. This ACL can be viewed in the ACL list during security policy creation and reused only if the next data security policy you create has the same security class. Otherwise, not using the same security class, this ACL is not listed in the ACL list and reused.

    Click Add to add this data realm to the Data Realm Created list.

    Click Next to continue after entering information in the Data Realm Authorization section.

  6. Apply Policy. The Policy Name and Object Name names display for the data security policy. Enter the following information:

    • In the Apply Policy field, specify the policy status for this policy as either Apply, Remove, Enable, or Disable. If you select Apply, specify the Apply Options.

    • Click (>) to expand Apply Options. Enter information for the following fields:

      • ACL Per Row - Whether the policy is to create hidden columns. True or False, the default is False. A value of True creates the hidden columns SYS_ACLOD.

      • Owner Bypass - Whether the owner of the row can bypass the data security policy, True or False, the default is False.

      • Statement Type - Whether to enforce all statement types (Select, Insert, Update, Delete) for this policy. Deselect statement types as needed; by default all statement types are selected.

    Click Apply Changes to create the data security policy.

For Privilege Class, if clicking NEW to create a new privilege class, refer to Creating Application Privilege Classes for information about creating a privilege class.

Updating Data Security Policies

From the Policies tab, update the data security policy by applying the same policy to other objects, such as a table or view to secure these data rows and columns for this application.

To update information for a data security policy:

  1. Click the Policies tab.

  2. In the Policy column of the Policies page, select the policy name you want to update.

  3. On the Policy Definition page, make your updates.

    Note that an update you can make is to apply the same policy to other objects, such as a table or view. You can do that by clicking ADD next to the Protected Objects field on the Policy Definition page. After selecting the object to protect and clicking Apply Changes, the Apply Policy page displays where you can click Apply Changes to apply the policy on the new object. During the apply operation, a validation is performed to validate the column or realm authorization applicable to the new object. If the column authorization is not valid for this new object, RASADM does not allow you to complete the apply operation. If the realm predicate is not valid, a warning displays next to the object's name, but RASADM allows you to apply the policy.

  4. Click Apply Changes to save your changes.
