RequirementMandatory 
Recommended ValueTrue 
Default BehaviorSet to true
Revertible behaviorN/A
Role requiredSecurity_admin 
Release VersionFall 2009 
Functional Impact(Low) This 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 should always be checked when transactions happen between two zones. This operation validates any UI actions before the form is rendered to the end user. 
WorkaroundNo alternate method available.
