Cognos Security Management made Simple

The unique processing of object security by NetVisn provides the base view (what you can see in Cognos Connection) along with an Account view. This view translates security implemented through groups and roles into a display of security by account by applying permissions based upon memberships.

• Security Editor makes it easy to manage changes to security and set up new accounts.   Learn more about NetVisn's Security Editor >
• Security Profiler quickly and easily validates your security settings by showing permissions on all accessible objects and how they are derived.
• Security Report allows you to identify all groups and roles each user is a member of, and all the direct or expanded memberships of groups and roles. Plus, you can change security in NetVisn.

• Object security in Cognos in based upon inherited and overridden security so knowing where to modify security in the content hierarchy is critical. When viewing an object in NetVisn you will know the ancestor object and the permissions which are inherited.
• Security Audit report offers a hierarchical view of content with overridden security and descendant inherited objects.
