| Abstract | Generally speaking, a well-designed content security model for a SAS® software deployment is an intentional balance between authorizations and those who require them. Maintaining this balance is an ongoing task for SAS administrators. The process for implementing a security model as part of a SAS® Viya® 3.4 deployment needs to be intentional as well. Fortunately, using an existing SAS®9 environment that has evolved in accordance with the corporate security model can prove very valuable. This value is not limited to the initial implementation of the SAS Viya 3.4 security model. The SAS®9 environment's model can also be referenced when the two environments run in parallel. This paper introduces techniques and processes to identify SAS®9 metadata objects that include directly (and intentionally) applied authorizations, and it explains how to retain those authorizations in SAS Viya 3.4. One of the processes that are discussed includes an automated solution using metadata security macros to deconstruct an Access Control Template (ACT) that is applied to SAS®9 objects. Deconstructing the ACT enables you to retain the authorizations when you promote SAS®9 content to SAS Viya 3.4. For ongoing administrative tasks, or when automation is not necessary, this paper demonstrates how to use Platform Object Framework administration tools, SAS®9 Security Report Macros, SAS® Management Console, SAS Viya 3.4 command-line interface (CLI), and SAS Viya 3.4 Environment Manager. |
