Providing access to data can be complex to implement, even for the smallest of models. In IBM Cognos, each of the data publication tools (i.e., Framework Manager, TM1, and Transformer) have different interfaces for securing data. A simple security configuration can easily require thousands of steps to implement and specialist skills for each data administration product.

Security 4X brings automation and acceleration tools to the data security configuration process for IBM Cognos Analytics to ensure that security is implemented consistently across a complex data model.
