Oracle BI 12c is tightly integrated with the Oracle Fusion Middleware Security architecture and delegates core security functionality to components of that architecture. By default, an Oracle BI installation is configured with an authentication provider that uses the Oracle WebLogic Server embedded LDAP server for user and group information. The Oracle BI default policy store provider and credential store provider stores credentials, application roles, and application policies in files in the domain. You must manually migrate the security configuration for Oracle BI from the 11g system to the 12c system with Oracle WebLogic Server.
