Manage protected objects

An object is a logical representation of a system resource. To protect objects, we must apply security policies. Security policies are the combination of access control list (ACL) policies, protected object policies (POPs), and authorization rules we can attach to an object. In the following sections, instructions are provided for using either Web Portal Manager or pdadmin, or both. For online help while usingWeb Portal Manager, click the question mark to open a separate help window for the current page. There are no equivalent pdadmin commands for importing, exporting, and copying object spaces.

After an object space is created, we can populate it with objects and then manage these objects. For information about creating an object space, see Create an object space.
