Session Description:

Although your IBM i server is one of the most securable platforms available, the protection of critical data is often undermined by weak security at the application level.

This session will cover the main considerations that a programmer should be aware of as they design their applications:

• Object ownership
• Adopted authority
• Public and private authorities
• Command line permission
• Client-server considerations
