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 that you can impose:

  • Database-connection security
  • Schema security
  • Compile-time security
  • Runtime 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.
