# Keep Information Secure

In addition to extracting files from repositories, IDOL Connectors are also an important part of IDOL document security. Document security ensures that IDOL Server does not return documents to a user unless that user is permitted to view them.

## Security for Documents

Connectors can extract security information that specifies who is permitted to view a file, and store that information in document fields in IDOL Server. When you send queries to IDOL Server, IDOL uses the information to determine whether to return a document. See Document Security.

Connectors also extract information about security groups, and send that information to an OmniGroupServer.

## Secure Communication

IDOL supports Transport Layer Security for communications between clients and the server. You can use SSL or GSSAPI encryption to ensure that malicious users cannot view, intercept, or resend your requests.
