What’s New in the Security Manager (SM)
Overview
The Govern Security Manager (SM) is responsible for the top-level security management for the Govern Suite of applications. The GSM manages user access to Govern applications such as Govern, Govern Scheduler, Govern New Administration (GNA), GIS Application Components and Configuration, Query Tool (QT), and Validation Tables. Depending on the Suite application, the level of security can be granular to the point that individual fields, as well as codes within the application can be secured. Users that are familiar with earlier versions of the GSM should note that changes were made to the functioning of the release 6.0, and upwards application.
