All users have unrestricted access in a secured environment.
What must be modified to control this access?

  • A. Delete the "All Authenticated Users" group.

  • C. Modify the advanced properties of the authorization namespace.
  • D. Remove the "Everyone" group from the "System Administrators" role.
Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: B 🗳️
You can disable the Anonymous user account by changing the configuration parameters in the configuration tool.
This entry represents a user account shared by members of the general public who can access IBM Cognos software without being prompted for authentication.
For example, this type of access is useful when distributing an online catalog.
Anonymous users can see only those entries for which access permissions are not set, or are set specifically for this account or for the Everyone group.
Incorrect Answers:
A: The built-in entries include the Anonymous user account, the groups All Authenticated Users and Everyone, and the role System Administrators. You cannot delete the built-in entries. They appear in both secured and non-secured environments.

When it is mentioned as a secured environment, the anonymous access should be disabled already. Correct answer is not B. It should be D.

This was true for version 10.x In Case of version 11.x you have to remove Everyone group from System Administrators: https://www.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/en/SSEP7J_11.1.0/com.ibm.swg.ba.cognos.ug_cra.doc/c_specifysecuritysettingsafterinstallation.html#SpecifySecuritySettingsAfterInstallation
