SAS 9.1.3 ETL Studio: Users Guide

You should develop a security plan for controlling access to libraries, tables, and other resources that are associated with a data warehouse. The phases in the security planning process are as follows:

• Define your security goals.

• Make some preliminary decisions about your security architecture.

• Determine which user accounts you must create with your authentication providers and which user identities and logins you must establish in the metadata.

• Determine how you will organize your users into groups.

• Determine which users need which permissions to which resources, and develop a strategy for establishing those access controls.

For details about developing a security plan, see the security chapters in the SAS Intelligence Platform: Planning and Administration Guide.
