Implementing Security for CA IDMS › Application Interface

Application Interface

CA Top Secret provides a security call and verification interface for use by CA IDMS applications. The interface can be used to:

• Extract and update installation defined data
• Retrieve user information
• Perform security checks against CA IDMS or user-defined resources
• Perform logging of violations automatically
• Perform logging of user-defined information

Note: Checks against unauthorized resources does not fail the task; the application program handles the violation.
