    Attribute Description
    Property name glide.security.strict.actions
    Configuration type System Properties (/sys_properties_list.do)
    Configure in Instance Security Center Yes
    Purpose To ensure an extra layer of validation on the table UI actions before they are executed.
    Recommended value true
    Functional ImpactThis remediation only adds an extra layer of validation to check for UI actions on the target table/page on the instance. As long as the access controls are set appropriately on the customer instance, there should not be an impact here.
    Security risk (Medium) Access request is always checked when transactions happen between two zones. This operation validates any UI actions before the form renders for the end user.
