Description
Note: since DataFlex 20.0, this functionality is integrated into the DataFlex Studio.
The Redaction Library implements a new security layer that removes the vulnerability of hidden and disabled controls within views. By default, the WebApp Framework provides access control at view level, once access to a view is granted the user can access any part of that view. Using the developer tools of the browser hidden controls can be made visible and disabled controls which can expose information and functionality that should have remained inaccessible.
As of DataFlex 2021 (20.0) this security layer is part of the standard product. Use this library with DataFlex 19.1, 19.0 or 18.2.
