Document Security Level
None Always Display Titles Full	Controls the access that your active West km members have to your indexed documents. The security levels are based on the security implemented in your organization's DMS. None: All matching organization documents are listed in West km results, and all active West km members can view and load them. This is the lowest security level and is the default setting. Always Display Titles: All matching organization documents are listed in West km results, including full profile information, but members can only view and load documents if they have the necessary DMS access rights. Full: Only documents to which the members have necessary DMS access rights are listed in West km results. This is the highest security setting. The performance you experience in West km is inversely proportional to the security level you select. The lowest security level may produce the best performance; the highest security level may negatively affect performance. Note: This setting does not apply to document collections in NetDocuments.
Apply Security to West km Icon	Controls the display of the West km icon in Westlaw and WestlawNext that indicates there are citing documents at your organization. If selected, the West km icon is displayed only after checking that the user has access to at least one document in your organization's document list. If not selected, the West km icon is displayed regardless of the user's access to your organization's document list. The user may be restricted from accessing organization documents, but the icon display informs the user that organization documents containing the citation exist.
Confidentiality Message	An optional warning message detailing privacy concerns that is displayed to members. The message is displayed in a pop-up window when a user views the first organization document in a session. To prevent display of the message box, set the value to "". Space is limited to 1000 characters.
