From what I think I know it creates a web app with interactive objects (flash?). Some of the objects data will come from different infoproviders. How do you control the security? Is it at the app level? InfoProvider level? Am I even looking at it the right way?</P><P></P><P>Thanks!</P></BODY></HTML> Thu, 13 Apr 2006 21:55:14 GMT https://community.sap.com/t5/application-development-and-automation-discussions/overall-security-question/m-p/1279713#M152502 sap_cohort 2006-04-13T21:55:14Z Re: Overall Security Question https://community.sap.com/t5/application-development-and-automation-discussions/overall-security-question/m-p/1279714#M152503 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><P>a) VC is embedded in the Portal and uses therefore Portal security.
