Is Data Security different from Oracle Label Security (OLS)?
Yes. Data Security restricts the access to the individual data that is displayed on the screen once that user has selected a menu or menu option. This is managed through Data Security policies. Oracle Label Security allows database administrators to enforce row level access control within database tables, based on sensitivity labels and clearances. It can be used within the eBusiness Suite to enforce label-based data access control policies on eBusiness data.
