Security
WebFOCUS Open Portal Services supports internal and external security for delivering real-time business intelligence to authorized users within the Vignette Portal Services environment. Administrators can structure and assign reports to individuals based upon the department they work in and can assign even greater levels of security by granting access to reports based upon job function. Departmental security allows users to see reports only for the department to which they have access, such as accounting, finance, or sales. Role-based security allows individuals to view reports based upon their particular position within the organization, for example the CEO or vice president who needs to access information across various departments throughout the enterprise.
