Initial security

When a content store is initialized, a set of security objects is created and stored in the Cognos® namespace. These objects are designed to simplify the IBM® Cognos administration.

The initial security policies grant unrestricted access to all objects in the content store to all users. The security administrator must modify the initial security settings to secure the content store. For more information, see Security settings after installation.

To see a summary of the initial access permissions for the Content Manager objects, see Initial access permissions.
