# Standard Security Configuration

The following table lists the connectors that support mapped security and provides the recommended security configurations for ingested documents.

- The ACLs column indicates the type of ACLs that are added to each document by the connector:

  - `BROWSE` - An ACL is added to the document field `AUTONOMYMETADATA_BROWSE` so that you can determine browse permission (the ability to see that an item exists, but not read it).
  - `READ` - An ACL is added to the document field `AUTONOMYMETADATA` so that you can determine read permission.
  - `WRITE` - An ACL is added to the document field `AUTONOMYMETADATA_WRITE` so that you can determine write permission.
- The Security Type column provides the value used in the `SECURITYTYPE` document field. Your Content component text index might contain documents that originated from different connectors. Each connector adds a `SECURITYTYPE` field to each document, so that you can configure your Content component to recognize documents that originated from that type of connector, and process each document using the appropriate security type. See Identify the Security Type.
- The Content Component Configuration column provides the recommended security configuration for your Content component. See Configure Security Types.
