Security

Configurable Analysis Framework (CAF) provides secure access to entities, factors, and related actions using the Analysis Access Control Page: This ensures that proper data security is applied when selecting the data to be displayed.

Term Definition

Entity

If an entity provided has OPRID as a high order key, then when entity data is selected from the database, row-level security (OPRID = %OperatorId) is applied to select only the entities that the user has access to. If this does not provide the required security to select the entities, the entity handler can implement or override the EntityHandler.GetAllEntities() method to select the entities.

Factor

The framework allows an administrator to specify factors that can be used and viewed by users. The access control is by user, role, or both. This can limit access to factors with sensitive data.

Related Action

Similar to factors, administrators can limit the related actions so which a user has access.
