The OpenEdge database management system has no minimum security requirements. You can, however, impose security features on any OpenEdge database or schema holder. There are four levels of application security you can impose:
Database-connection security
Schema security
Compile-time security
Run-time security
For more information about compile-time and run-time security, see OpenEdge Deployment: Managing ABL Applications. For general information about OpenEdge security, see OpenEdge Getting Started: Core Business Services - Security and Auditing.
