Security reporting
creates a snapshot of metadata layer access control settings. SAS provides
the %MDSECDS autocall macro to enable you to easily build data sets of permissions
information. You can use those data sets as the data source for security reports.
You can also identify changes in settings by comparing data sets that are
generated at different times.
Security logging records security-related events as part of the system-wide
logging facility. The events that are captured include authentication events,
client connections, changes to user and group information, and permission
changes. For more information about logging, see Logging and Monitoring for SAS Servers and the
SAS Logging: Configuration and Programming Reference.
