Change process to release security patches

Hello, whenever Osisoft identifies security issues on PI / PI AF, they deliver fixes through the next release of these applications. This is not convenient as upgrading to a new release is a risk that we don't like to be forced to take and has a ...

Be able to configure PI AF security in a single PI System Explorer window

Currently, there are 2 windows to configure PI AF security, and it is a pain to switch between them: File → Database → Edit Security, which is used to assign permissions to identities File → Server Properties → Identities tab and Mappings tab, whi...

Remove and disable permissions that do not apply in PI System Explorer's Security Configuration window

Rename or add descriptions for Read, Write, Read Data, and Write Data permissions in PI System Explorer

Hide Certain PI Point Attributes from Users

PI AF Security - More Granularity Needed

It would be helpful if AF's security model was more granular. For example (and please correct me if I am wrong), the same settings that allow someone to add/modify UOMs in AF is the same setting that allow someone to change the AF Sever name. This...
