Security File Design

Given the results of the user and resource inventory, and after studying the features available with CA Top Secret, you can design your CA Top Secret Security File. The design of your Security File is most effective if you use both your environment and CA Top Secret’s capabilities as input.

When designing the Security File:

• Keep the file structure simple. The structure can follow your organization’s functional areas of responsibility.
• Standardize the Security File names.
• Use a consistent approach and style in designing the file. Remember that you are designing a file just as you would for any application and that it is best to keep it simple, straightforward, and understandable.

These techniques simplify maintenance and help you find a file element quickly when you need it.
