Sure, I can provide a detailed explanation of Session State Protection and the components on which it can be configured in Oracle Application Express (APEX).

Session State Protection is a feature of APEX that enhances the security of an application by preventing unauthorized access to session state data. Session state data is stored on the server-side and includes information such as page items, application items, and session variables. Session State Protection ensures that this data is not manipulated by unauthorized users.

Here are the three components on which Jules can configure Session State Protection in APEX:

  1. Pages: Jules can configure Session State Protection for individual pages within the application. This can be done by going to the Page Definition and selecting the Security section. Here, Jules can choose to enable Session State Protection for the page, which will ensure that session state data is protected when users access that particular page.

  2. Page Items: Jules can also configure Session State Protection for individual page items. This can be done by going to the Page Definition, selecting the item, and then choosing the Security section. Here, Jules can enable Session State Protection for the item, which will ensure that the data entered by the user is protected when it is submitted to the server.

  3. Application Items: Jules can also configure Session State Protection for application items. Application items are variables that are used across multiple pages within the application. This can be done by going to the Application Definition, selecting the item, and then choosing the Security section. Here, Jules can enable Session State Protection for the item, which will ensure that the data stored in the item is protected when it is accessed by users.

Note that while buttons and page regions are not components on which Session State Protection can be configured, they can still be affected by this feature if they rely on session state data. Similarly, page processes can also be affected by Session State Protection if they manipulate session state data.
