## Overview

Use this page to configure an Auditing provider for the CompatibilityRealm and to disable the `guest` user for a WebLogic domain. This page applies to WebLogic Server deployments using Compatibility Security.

The Auditing provider installed from this page must be an implementation of the `weblogic.security.audit` interface. This interface is deprecated in this release of WebLogic Server.

The `guest` user is automatically provided in Compatibility security. When authorization is not required, WebLogic Server assigns the `guest` identity to an client, thus giving the client access to any resources that are available to the `guest` user. A client can log in as the `guest` user by entering `guest` as the username and password when prompted by a Web browser or in a Java client. By default, the `guest` account is disabled. For a more secure deployment, BEA recommends running WebLogic Server with the`guest` account disabled.
