Q:
iSeries Object Authority vs. Menu Security
OS/400 and iSeries, AS/400 security, iSeries security
Hello,
I am new to iSeries and OS/400. Here is my question:
Let's say in a level 30 security environment, user access is controlled through a menu, which does not alow them to access any sensitive objects. But a number of sensitive objects have been assigned *ALL authority for *PUBLIC. Can these users somehow still have access to those sensitive objects because of the *ALL for *PUBLIC authority assigned to them, or would that be impossible due to their menu access?

Hi,

That would depend on your menus and whether the user has access to a command line or not. If your menus don't use the objects and your users don't have access to a command line then your users cannot get access to them.

Regards,

Martin Gilbert.

If you are running TCP/IP, you also need to think about iSeries Access data transfer, ODBC and FTP.

…and Remote Command/Distributed Program Call, and REXEC, and JDBC(OleDB/.Net/?), and ssh, and…?

We use both. There is always some one in every organization that knows just enough about SQL or AS/400 Query to be dangerous.
