Changes to configuration files

PolicyCenter 9.0.0 contains three configuration files related to security.

security-config.xml

Writable

Use to define custom security handlers.

security-config-app.xml

Read-only

Defines internal security permissions for the PolicyCenter application.

security-config-pl.xml

Read-only

Defines internal security permissions used by the underlying application code.

Order of precedence

A permission declaration with the same entity and permKey values can appear in more than one of the files related to security. If a permission declaration appears in more than one file, the definition in security-config.xml takes precedence, followed by the definition in security-config-app.xml.
