The Arbortext Publishing Engine Security Framework Parameter
The com.arbortext.e3.enableSecurityFramework parameter specifies whether the Arbortext Publishing Engine security framework is enabled or disabled. For example:
<Parameter name="com.arbortext.e3.enableSecurityFramework"
value="true" />
The default value is false.
The security framework allows every request sent to the Arbortext PE Request Manager to be classified as "disabled", "unrestricted", or "restricted" based on users and groups defined in Apache Tomcat. Refer to Arbortext Publishing Engine Security Framework for framework capabilities and details on configuring the framework. If the framework is disabled, none of the described request processing takes place and the Arbortext PE Request Manager not authenticate requests.

While enabling the Arbortext Publishing Engine security framework provides a layer of security against improper access to Arbortext Publishing Engine, it should be considered as only one component of your site’s broader security plan.
