# Security Configuration Parameters

The `[Security]` section lists your security repositories, specifies generic settings for them, and contains a subsection for each of the listed security repositories. Within each subsection, specify the parameters to apply to the security repository.

NOTE: In a unified configuration, you must specify these parameters in the `[UserSecurity]` section.

- The Community component ignores security types that do not have a matching configuration section.

- If you rename a security type, Community treats it as a new security type.

- Removing a security type leaves the corresponding user security fields intact.

- Community returns details of the configured security responses in the response to the GetStatus action. It also logs a `successfully loaded` message for every library it loads.

- If Community cannot load a security repository library, it logs an error message and shuts down.

  NOTE: If the configured library does not exist, Community does not shut down. You can check that all your security libraries are configured correctly by checking the GetStatus response.

For example:

    [Security]
    DefaultSecurityType=0
    DocumentSecurity=True
    SyncRolesFromGroups=False
    SecurityUsernameDefaultToLoginUsername=False
    0=Autonomy
    1=NT
    2=Notes

    [Autonomy]
    Library=C:\OpenText\KnowledgeDiscovery\modules\user_autnsecurity
    EnableLogging=False
    DocumentSecurity=False
    SecurityFieldCSVs=none

    [NT]
    CaseSensitiveUserNames=False
    CaseSensitiveGroupNames=False
    Library=C:\OpenText\KnowledgeDiscovery\modules\user_ntsecurity
    EnableLogging=False
    DocumentSecurity=True
    V4=True
    SecurityFieldCSVs=username,domain
    Domain=DOMAIN
