A security group is a collection of permissions that determine what data users can access from a source database when you run a database archive project.
You define security groups for source connections. The permissions in the security group determine the entities that a user can select when addomg entities to archive and retirement projects.
When you create a security group, you specify the connection, define the permissions, and add users. If a user does not belong to a security group, the user cannot select entities in an archive or retirement project.
