Hiding (not used) Oracle Standard Folders/Dashboards in FDI Catalog

Ivancho

The insufficient security of the standard folders (Common/ORACLE folders) and resulting problems (not changeable for Service Admin) lead to a critical situation in the live environment. Service Admin should be able to either hide the unused folders via permissions, properties or at least restrict access via permissions. For OTBI there is a solution, which can be also implemented for FDI.

Solution for OTBI:
Release 13.19D Factory BI Catalog Lockdown

Users are provisioned with the BI Consumer role, which allows you to navigate the entire BI catalog folder structure. Analytics and reports are properly secured based on your security profile. You may have a need to hide some or all of the factory BI catalog content. To allow modification of catalog folder access, BI has introduced a new set of BI catalog reporting duty roles to secure catalog root folders. The new feature provides the ability to : * Hide the entire factory BI catalog

Fully support this suggestion. Implementing the ability to hide or restrict access to standard folders would significantly enhance operational security, usability, and overall user satisfaction.
