# Use Document Classification to limit publicly accessible documents \[New in Security Center 7.0\]

Control public access to permalinked documents using system properties.
Hinweis:  
This hardening setting is not a part of the hardening baseline. It does not appear in Security Center hardening pages and affect your hardening score.

By default, the Document Management plugin includes these classifications:

* public
* restricted
* confidential
* none (no classification provided)

{#sc-use-document-classification-to-limit-publicly-accessible-documents__ul_oht_1wp_qfc}

Use the com.snc.documents.permalink.allowed_classifications to create a list of document classifications. Documents under these classifications (and documents without classification) are publicly accessible to
any unauthenticated users with an appropriate link.

Use this property to control public access to document permalinks. Previously, these links were publicly accessible to anyone with the link. The value of this property depends on your specific needs. You may have additional custom
document categories that may need to be added to this property to enable public access.

Set the com.snc.documents.permalink.allowed_classifications property value to a comma-separated list of document classifications. Documents with these classifications are publicly accessible by unauthenticated
users.

If this property isn't present in the System Properties \[sys_properties\] table, it defaults to an empty list. In this case, only documents with no classification are publicly accessible by unauthenticated users. The default value
of this property is public, meaning that only documents classified as public or documents with no classification are accessible to unauthenticated users.

This includes ensuring an entity accessing a resource holds valid credentials to do so, creating and protecting a well-defined set of roles or permissions and ensuring role or permission controls are protected from replay and tampering.") |
| Security risk | * Severity score: 5.3 * CVSS score: Medium * If a document category containing documents which shouldn't be publicly accessible is added to this property, it may expose sensitive information to unauthenticated users. {#sc-use-document-classification-to-limit-publicly-accessible-documents__ul_ihv_dvg_1xb} |
| Functional impact | If a document category containing documents which should be publicly accessible isn't added to this property, it prevents those documents from being accessed. |
