Upgrade Guide › Upgrading from 12.0 › Security Models

Security Models

In the current CA DataMinder version, support for database security security models has been extended and managing security models has been simplified.

Note: In previous versions, database security models were referred to as Row Level Security (RLS) models.

Policy-based Security Model

CA DataMinder now supports an additional model based on policy classes and ensures that reviewers can only see specific types of event.

Support for Multiple Database Models

CA DataMinder now permits multiple database models to be active at the same time on the CMS. These models include the original model based on management groups, the new policy-based model, plus variants and hybrids of these models. Previously, you could only have one security model active at any time.

Important! Each security model must use its own database account. Security models cannot share the same database account.

Security Models Managed in the Administration Console

You configure database models in the Administration console. Previously, you had to run RLS customization scripts to change the active security model. See the Database Guide for details; search for 'security models'.
