In IBM® Integration Designer 26.0.0, both administrative security and application security are enabled by default.

Server security, including administrative security and application security, is automatically enabled for those test environment servers that you choose to install with IBM Integration Designer 26.0.0.

Important: Application security is required by IBM Business Automation Workflow and must not be turned off in the administrative console.

During installation of the test environment you are prompted for a user name and password to be used for administering server security.

Note that if you disable or enable server security in a server administrative console, you must ensure that these changes are also specified for the same server in the server configuration editor or the Window > Preferences > Server > Security preferences page of IBM Integration Designer.

Information about changing the user ID and password, and about disabling or enabling server security, is found in the Security documentation in the IBM Integration Designer help: Help > Help Contents. The embedded assistance help opens. Navigate to IBM Business Process Manager, Version 8.5, All platforms > Authoring services in Integration Designer > Managing security in IBM Integration Designer.
