Oracle Business Intelligence Enterprise Edition (OBIEE) Security Examined

Oracle’s Business Intelligence Enterprise Edition (OBIEE) 11g is a powerful tool for accessing data, however this power means OBIEE security is imperative in order to protect the data. Throughout March and April 2014 Integrigy will be focusing our blog posts on the security of all layers of the OBIEE technology stack: the OBIEE application, the WebLogic application server, and the repository database. In addition, the topic of the monthly webinar for March will be OBIEE security.

As OBIEE is part of the Oracle Fusion Middleware product suite, a review of Oracle WebLogic’s security features will be followed by a discussion of security features of each layer of the OBIEE technology stack.  Figure 1 graphically depicts the architectural components of OBIEE.  The sizes of the boxes are relative to the importance of OBIEE security.
