While there is no single best way to set up security, the following steps should be
sufficient in most cases.
Procedure
- Create an authorization realm. Authorization realms are used by authentication realms to
associate users with groups and to determine user access. IBM® UrbanCode Release includes
an internal database for storing security information as well as integration with the Lightweight
Directory Access Protocol (LDAP). LDAP is a widely-used protocol for accessing distributed directory
information over IP networks. See Authorization realms.
- Create an authentication realm. The authentication realm is used to determine a user's identity
within an authorization realm. See Authentication realms.
- Create roles and define permissions for them. For most uses, the default security types should
be adequate. See Roles and permissions.
- Create and import users and groups.
- Create teams and assign users and groups to them. See Security teams.
