PeopleSoft Security Rel 8.50

This course teaches you to design and implement PeopleTools security that is common to all PeopleSoft applications. You will discuss the best practices of organizing, implementing, administering, and evaluating PeopleSoft security;



explore the capabilities of application security by creating permission lists, roles, and user profiles; and use development security to control PeopleTools such as Application Designer, Process Scheduler, Query, and Data Mover. You learn to use data encryption technology to hide sensitive data at the database level. Learn to monitor tables using three types of auditing. Secure queries, batch processes, and reports. Learn to configure single sign-on among PeopleSoft applications and how you can configure PeopleSoft applications to use directory servers to authenticate PeopleSoft users.



Note: This course does not cover application-specific security such as HR, Financials, and EPM specific data permissions or row-level security
