IBM Enterprise Records, Version 5.1.+              

Security markings

An object can inherit a security marking or can have a security marking directly assigned to it like a Confidential security category, for example. Security markings allow a user with a Records Manager or Records Administrator role to define the security for a record category that is then automatically set for all folders and records associated with that category.

Markings are property values that control access to objects. Users can access an object if they meet the criteria set by the instance security and the marking value. You need to decide which security marking you need to apply to your entities. For more information:

Marking sets that you create are applicable to the entire FileNet P8 domain. Therefore, after you create marking sets for a FileNet P8 domain, the markings are available to all object stores in that domain. For information about how to create the required marking sets, see the related link.

The following marking sets are created for the FileNet P8 domain on the Content Engine server when you run the appropriate task in Configuration Manager:
