Rule based security for Formats​

Internal: see TFS [#46648]
Quick overview of the security options and their relationship:

Custom security:
  • assigned to a certain item/document in the Global sites/My sites/GSRs
  • security setting defined in the security window in basic mode
Format rule security:
  • assigned to an format
  • defining set of rules based on any item/document properties in the "Security Rules" tab of the "Field selection" window
  • rules applied on all folders and all documents having the given format
Item rule security:
  • assigned to a certain item in the Global sites/My sites/GSRs
  • defining set of rules based on any item/document properties in the security window in advanced mode
  • rules applied on the current folder and all documents belonging to this folder
The security settings are applied in the following order on the item/document during reevaluation:
  • Custom security
  • Format rule security (overrides the custom security)
  • Item rule security (overrides the format rule security)
Reworked and improved the security window:
  • Added Operator selection and Controls for the specific types to Rule Condition creation.
  • Added Allow/Disallow All Checkbox for the Permissions
  • Changed Enabled/Disabled States for specific Actions

Manual execution of database scripts​

Basic concept​

Internal: see TFS [#48277]
New way of deployment on systems, where changing the database objects is restricted. It’s required to have 3 inPoint environments:

  • Test system (T)
    • Contains copy of the production database.
    • Preparing the deployment for the Q and P systems.
  • Quality system (Q)
    • Contains copy of the production database.
    • System with a database restriction.
  • Production system (P)
    • System with a database restriction.

Setup GUI changes​

Internal: see TFS [#48277]
Defining the database script execution mode in the wizard, which will define whether to execute any DDL (Data Definition Language)/DML (Data Manipulation Language) commands during the deployment.

Possible database scripts execution modes:
  • "Ausführen und protokollieren"
    • Setup executes and logs each DDL (Data Definition Language)/DML (Data Manipulation Language) commands.
    • Used only on the Test system without any database restrictions.
  • "Nicht durchführen"
    • Setup is deploying the assemblies.
    • Setup does not execute any DDL (Data Definition Language) commands.
    • Setup does not execute any DML (Data Manipulation Language) commands in the system tables.
    • Used only on the Quality and Production system with database restrictions.
This approach can be used only during the upgrade.

See the manual for more details.

Enforcing Tls1.2 for better security (standard)​

Internal: see TFS [#54278]
Now that Tls1.2 is required by most Browsers and Servers infrastructure, we started migrating all our Services to enforce Tls1.2 upon connection. inPoint.Identity was the first one (due to migration to the Kestrel Web Server), inPoint.Core and inPoint.Client have also been migrated.
Note that for inPoint.Identy you can opt-out of this setting in case you are experiencing connectivity issues (at your own risk).
