RMF Data Portal - My View without using browser cookies

RMF is storing user data (view settings) in cookies.

In many companies browsers are configured to delete cookies when the browser is closed. This is a security requirement which not can be changed by the individual user.

In addition, storing profile data in cookies (e.g. views) seems to be not an allowed mechanism according to common web developer standards.

The user data (my view) should not be stored in cookies. It would be great if this behavior of RMF could be changed.

Without this change users are no longer able to use views in RMF Data Portal. Views have to be recreated each day, which is not reasonable.

    Hello. Data security is increasingly important, cookies can open ''doors''. We now use EADM from TECHNICAL-STORAGE ( TECHNICAL Storage is ISV IBM) for the analysis of RMF or CMF files. We have over 100 LPARs.
