Security Label with Multiple Values
A standard security label can be configured to be set with multiple values by adding one of the following tags in the security label configuration file:
<MultiValueLogicalOperator>OR</MultiValueLogicalOperator>
<MultiValueLogicalOperator>AND</MultiValueLogicalOperator>
For more information on setting a tag in the configuration file, see SecurityLabel element.
Evaluation of Condition in MultiValueLogicalOperator Tag
Suppose an object is applied with a standard security label Secrecy Label having values such as WorkflowGroupSecretEval and Kindofsecret. The user is an authorized participant for WorkflowGroupSecretEval security label value but not for Kindofsecret security label value.
• If the MultiValueLogicalOperator tag is added with OR-condition, the user will be granted access to the object because OR-condition requires the user to be authorized participant of at least one of the security label values set on the object.
• If theMultiValueLogicalOperator tag is added with AND-condition, the user will not be granted access to the object because AND-condition requires the user to be authorized participant for all the security label values set on the object.
Setting Multiple Values for a Security Label
• You can set a security label with multiple values using the command line utility. Using utility tool is very efficient when you want to update security label values on multiple objects at the same time. For more information, see UpdateSecurityLabels Command Line Utility Input File Requirements.
• You can set a security label with multiple values in Set Security Labels step when creating an object and from the Edit Security Labels and Edit Security Label Attribute Values in the Edit wizard. For more information, see Setting Security Labels while Creating Objects and Viewing and Setting Security Labels on Existing Objects.
