CA Culprit in the CA IDMS/DB Environment › CA Culprit Security Considerations › Security Levels

Security Levels

CA Culprit security is established at several levels:

• Installation security establishes whether CA Culprit security is on or off.
• Product security establishes whether a user is authorized to use a certain product.
• User security establishes whether a user is authorized to access certain products and entities.
• Passkey and row level security establish whether a user is:
  • Authorized to access a table owned by another user
  • Authorized to access secured rows of a table owned by another user
• Auto attribute security establishes whether CA Culprit automatically supplies the characteristics of a file defined to the CA IDMS/DB Integrated Data Dictionary (IDD).

Each type of security is discussed separately below.
