- Enable User Input Data Flow security option for J2EE.
- Launch analysis + snapshot.
- Open dashboard and search for objects violating security flow.
- Huge variation (decreased) in the objects violation User Input Data Flow Security or there are no violations for User Input Data Flow Security.
Impact of the Problem

- Removed files.
- Versions of the technologies.
- Check if there is any change in the Execution Unit. If you have split the analysis unit then there will be an impact in the User Input Data Flow Security results.
