1. An integrated security system operating over a network comprising:
- a network security controller coupled to the network comprising;
a relational database including portal objects and related resources represented in at least one table in the relational database;
at least one network node comprising;
a local database coupled to the network adapted to receive predetermined resource information from the relational database;
