7.8 Securing Oracle Reports Services

In 11g Release 1 11.1.1, Reports Server is secure out-of-the-box using the Oracle Platform Security Services, which accomplishes both authentication and authorization. Oracle Reports uses this Java EE-based security model to allow you to create security policies for running report jobs and Web commands. In prior releases, Reports Server authentication was restricted to use only Oracle Internet Directory. Authorization of Reports Server required an Oracle Portal-based security model using Portal metadata repository for checking authorization. If you want to revert to the security mechanism of prior releases, refer to Section 7.8.1.1, Switching to Oracle Portal Security . In Oracle Reports 11g Release 1 11.1.1, administrators can use Oracle Enterprise Manager to more easily define and manage granular security policies and file system access: ■ Enabling and Disabling Security ■ Defining Security Policies for Reports ■ Defining Security Policies for Directories ■ Defining Security Policies for Web Commands ■ Defining ReadWrite Access to Directories ■ Enabling and Disabling Single Sign-On ■ Using Oracle Access Manager ■ Managing Credentials

7.8.1 Enabling and Disabling Security

To enable or disable security for the Reports Server or Reports Application: Note: For elements that specify a time, the time will automatically adjust for Daylight Savings Time DST, if necessary. For example, if a job is scheduled to run daily at 5:00 a.m., it will run at that time beginning with the scheduled start date, and adjusting when DST begins or ends so that it will continue to run at 5:00 a.m. as expected. Time entries in past jobs queue are not modified for example, job enqueue time, start time, finish time. Note: If you select a scheduled job and click Edit, you can change the options for the scheduled job. When you click Submit, the message Job Id nnn has been re-scheduled successfully displays. Oracle Enterprise Manager cancels the original scheduled job and moves it to the Failed Jobs queue, and creates a new scheduled job with the modified parameters. The new job has a different job ID than the original job.
