#Security

In our current UCR arhcitecture, we use two installations. We have one machine with Access, Registry and Edges and one machine with the ODS. On the machine with the Registry, I can create a user/clinician. When I log into the management portal with this user, a so-called delegated user is created in the cached users table. So far everything is going well.

When I try the same on the machine with the ODS I get the message : 'ERROR #822: Access Denied' . so no delegated user is created.... Does anyone have any idea where I can find the solution?

Introduction

If the administrators responsible for securing applications had their way, passwords would be long complex strings of random symbols, and users would memorize different passwords for every application they use. But in the real world, few people are capable of such prodigious feats of memory. The typical user can only remember a handful of relatively short passwords.

In this recent post I highlighted the importance of a CSP session's Key property in enforcing the level of security your web application may be relying on, and in particular the need to keep the property value secret.

Hey Community,

Join this session to learn more about security-related topics, starting with the change to the OpenSSL libraries and the general distribution of third-party libraries with InterSystems products (e.g., Web Server):

Hi, folks!

When you deploy DeepSee solutions you often do not want grant a User %All Role to work with a particular Dashboard.

Consider a Dashboard 'Dash' with a few widgets where listings are being used.

If you manage a Role to get access to the Dash you need to grant access to %DB_DBNAME resource to have a database access, grant access to a Dashboard resource (if any) and ... grant SELECT accesses to all the tables involved in SQL queries being used in all the listings of widgets.

Hi,

I'm using Operating System authentication and I need to give permission on Healthshare to allow a user to run only this two commands

##Class(Backup.General).ExternalFreeze()

and

##Class(Backup.General).ExternalThaw()

This user is gonna be use to backup only.

There are any role on HealthShare for this?

In the WRC, we often see customers contact us because they are having been provided a .PPK file for use with SFTP connections, but they don’t know how to use that key within InterSystems IRIS. This article will explain why this represents such a problem, and explain how to use the .PPK key to generate a Private / Public Key pair in a format recognized by InterSystems IRIS.

Hi folks!

Here is how I grant SQL access of user to a particular class/table:

GRANT SELECT, UPDATE ON Packacge_X.Table_Y TO UserZ

How can I grant SQL access of a certain user to a whole schema?

Hi! recently I have to apply api-key validation to a web app with a lot of endpoints and I'm going to tell you how I did it in a centralized way.

I'm going to explain you how we can apply in a generic way (or not) api-key validation to all the endpoints of our web app.

I'm interested in different approaches on how to store user data in Caché. I'm assuming that application uses Caché security/Caché users and not a self-made authentication system.

Several approaches, I'm familiar with:

Hi folks!

Lately (maybe last 2-3 years) I develop with IRIS exclusively in docker - so iris instance I use for compiling and running IRIS apps is local.

And most every time I enter password for management portal and web-apps. The same password every time. Sounds familiar?

Apart from the database server itself, the standard bundle of the Caché DBMS includes DeepSee, a real-time business intelligence tool. DeepSee is the quickest and the simplest way of adding OLAP functionality to your Caché application.

Another standard component is an Audit subsystem with a web interface, which has the options for expanding with your own event types and an API for using in an application code.

Below is a small example of the joint use of these subsystems that answers the following questions: who did what and when in an information system?

Hello,

I need a way to securely store credentials in IRIS that are used to access third-party APIs. These credentials include different clientId/secret pairs that I don't want to expose. While I know that it's possible to define Production Credentials in Ens.Config.Credentials, I understand that they are stored in plain text.

Is there a way to pull a user name and password from the Credentials list that is kept in Ensemble? Right now I have a LDAP user that I have hard coded into my ZAUTHENTICATE, which I would like to get away from. I am not to familiar with settings Global, or calling them at least.

Thanks

Scott
