The security framework requires configuration parameters to enable security in MDM Registry Edition. The Security Client Interface exposes a list of security APIs for a developer to implement security.

To configure the security framework for MDM Registry Edition, specify the configuration parameters in a security configuration file, create users, and configure the MDM Registry Edition Security Server.

You can create a security configuration file by using the security APIs or the sample configuration files that MDM Registry Edition provides. A security configuration file contains information about the security provider, which can be LDAP or a database. MDM Registry Edition Security Server uses the security configuration file when the server starts.
