Designing Secure Flat File Data Sources on Windows - trillium_discovery - trillium_quality - 17.1

This is an optional configuration appropriate for securing flat file data sources.

If you require security for flat file data sources, you must define at least one Windows user account that can act as a Trillium 17 load user on the Windowsserver. When you create an entity in Trillium (based on a flat file data source), you are:

1. Asked to choose a data connection. Data connections are created through the Repository Manager and Administration Center. Consult the Trillium DQRepository Administrator’s Guide and Administration Center help for more information.

2. Prompted for a username and password to access the data source stored on the Trillium 17 server

   If...	Then...
   No Windows Load User accounts are defined	You will not have to enter a username and password. All connections to flat file data sources are available to any Trillium user.
   At least one Windows Load User account is defined and has been granted read access to the directory defined by the data connection	You must enter a username and password to access those data sources through Trillium.
