Question Posted / anas jamal


how you provide security to reports? How you provide security to packages ?..

Answer / Awadh Kishore

Security in Cognos can be managed at the user, group, and package levels. To secure a report, one assigns permissions like "View", "Run", or "Admin" for each object (report, data model, folder) to specific users or groups. For packages, security is set on the container level, controlling which users can access the package and its contents. Additionally, role-based access control can be employed to manage permissions based on user roles.
