Initial Security

When a content store is initialized, a set of security objects is created and stored in the Cognos namespace. They are designed to simplify the Cognos 8 administration. The initial security policies grant unrestricted access to all objects in the content store to all users.

The security administrator must modify the initial security settings to secure the content store .

To see a summary of the initial access permissions for the Content Manager objects, see Initial Access Permissions.
