Applying the Default Security Level

If reverting the security settings as described in Resetting Security Settings (undo) doesn’t resolve the issue, you can apply the default security level. The security settings will then correspond to a system installed with defaults.

Applying the default security level (DLS) allows you to regularly run checks of the security settings (“aixpert -c“) to detect deviations from the default. This would otherwise not be so easy on a system installed with the default security level without applying the default security level.
