You have now completed the section, "How Enterprise Manager Works." For more information on security in Enterprise Manager, see the Oracle Enterprise Manager Administrator's Guide, and Configuration Guide.		Security To perform a task using Enterprise Manager, you must have the appropriate privileges on the target service. To administer remote databases as SYSDBA or SYSOPER, you must also set up a database password file and modify the host initialization file. After you set up preferred credentials, you log in once to start the Console and are then automatically logged in to targets as needed. Enterprise Manager uses default credentials if specific credentials are not available. Each Enterprise Manager administrator must have an account in a repository which is accessed through a Management Server. All communication between Intelligent Agents and Management Servers can be encrypted by using Oracle Advanced Security.
