| Attribute | Description |
|-|-|
| Property name | glide.basicauth.required.unl |
| Configuration type | System Properties (/sys_properties_list.do) |
| Category | [API and web service](https://servicenow-prod.fluidtopics.net/IQQn4Mcc1sDrMeZ8Xzt9tg "The API and Web Service category ensures that applications have appropriate authentication, authorization and session management, validate all input that traverses a trust boundary and include security controls for all API types.") |
| Purpose | To enforce basic authentication on unload requests. |
| Recommended value | true |
| Security risk rating | 7.5 |
| Functional impact | This remediation enforces a combination of authentication methods, in the form of basic authentication and system level access control. It performs this authentication while retrieving data from tables/pages in the form of unload data on the instance. |
| Security risk | (High) Without appropriate authorization configured on the datasource unload requests, an unauthorized user can get access to sensitive content/data on the target instance. Ensure that glide.basicauth.required.unl exists in the sys_properties_table and is set to true. |
| References | [Authentication](https://servicenow-prod.fluidtopics.net/nATJH8t6~ByQtwXumQGMnQ "ServiceNow's authentication validates the identity of a user who accesses an instance, and then authorizes the user to features that match the user's role or job function.") |
