OS Security components use configuration files to change
their run-time behaviour. The SecurityConfig component
is a collection of configuration files for specific OS Security components.
The SecurityConfig component includes configuration
files for specific OS Security components. The configuration files
can be used to change the run-time behaviour of the components.
Within SecurityConfig, the files associated
with each component are stored in a directory with the same name as
the component. For example, the configuration files for file tokens
are stored in /securityconfig/filetokens/.
securityconfig contains configuration files
for the following components:
| Component Name | Description of configuration file(s) |
|---|---|
|
A central repository file that provides system wide default plug-in details and authentication strength alias definitions. For more information, see Configuring the Central Repository File |
|
Resource files that define the user interface (UI) strings. These UI strings are used by device creators for UI implementation. |
|
Configuration settings for checking the revocation status of the digital certificates which use Online Certificate Status Protocol (OCSP). |
|
An initialisation file which configures and controls the display of a client authentication dialog. Resource files which define the UI strings used by the tlsprovider component and which customise the timeout period for the acceptance and rejection of certificates. |
|
An xml file ( A package file for the UPS server ROM stub SIS file. Device creators must specify the UPS policy files on the Z drive in this package file if the policy files are to be upgraded post-manufacture. |
You must modify the configuration files and rebuild the securityconfig component to customise the behaviour of
specific OS Security components.
Build Dependencies
The securityconfig component builds or exports files that are used to build other components.
Note:
You must be
aware of possible dependencies on the securityconfig component, if you are building each components separately.
You must build
the securityconfig component before building
dependent components.
Dependencies
for the entire OS Security module build are handled by the build sequence
in the main bld.inf file.
