Siebel Analytics Applications Installation and Administration Guide > Integrated Security for Analytics Applications > Types of Security in Siebel AnalyticsTwo different levels of security configuration are supported by Siebel Analytics: Siebel Analytics applications security is based on Responsibilities and Siebel Analytics repository groups. A Repository group and a Web Catalog group are created for each Siebel Analytics-specific responsibility defined in the Siebel operational application. The group names are exactly the same as the responsibility name. In the Siebel operational application, you assign users to the appropriate Analytics responsibilities, and the membership is automatically be reflected in the repository as well as the Web Catalog. The user inherits the appropriate permissions from the responsibilities. NOTE: Users are always created in the Siebel operational application database, never in the Siebel Analytics repository. User Access and User ResponsibilitiesPermission and access are always determined by user's memberships in various responsibilities. In this case, the term Responsibility is interchangeable with the terms Repository group and Web Catalog group; they have a one-to-one correspondence. Siebel Analytics come with certain preconfigured responsibilities. Table 71 shows these preconfigured responsibilities.

Default Security Settings in Analytics ApplicationsThe User Administrator and the Group Administrators are a special user and group that do not have any restrictions and do not go through the Siebel database. The User SADMIN (password SADMIN) is also a special user, similar to Administrator. NOTE: Be sure to change the default password before migrating to production. The group Siebel Administrator is set up as a member of the supergroup Administrators, so members of this group have no restrictions. |
