Dubt about sentence

English to Spanish Bus/Financial SAP
I have following sentence to translate, but I am not able to understand what it mean...

Security-wise, for the change to allow eCATT and CATT in client maintenance SCC4 – is restricted since the SAP GUI normal dialog (non-RFC) users are still obviously restricted with the transaction code access to ECATT and CATT transaction codes (Transaction code SCAT and SECATT).

Someone can help me a lttle? I am not asking for a translation, but to try to undestand what it says. TIA

2 +1 security-wise > as far as it relates to security issues

Hola a todos, me acaban de reformular la frase y ha quedado así:

Security-wise, for the change to allow eCATT and CATT, access is maintained since the dialog users are restricted to ECATT and CATT by assignment to transaction codes SCAT and SECATT

En mi opinión, "is restricted" puede considerarse una forma pasiva, lo que falta es el sujeto (como una mala traducción del español al inglés) "En lo que se refiere a la seguridad, es limitada...", en inglés haría falta añadir un pronombre "it" que se refiera a "security": "Security-wise, [...] it is restricted...
E-nauta Mar 20, 2014:
Objeto directo es "la seguridad general" La traducción sería: "La seguridad general está restringida, frase explicativa, ya que los usuarios, bla, bla. "

Claro, si piensas que no es un error tipográfico, la frase no tiene sentido y te falta el objeto directo.

Saludos

@ Pablo Your question was unclear to begin with, but the sentence is badly written and very confusing. However, I know very little about SAP to offer a sensible rewrite, but the whole sentence does need to be rewritten to be understandable. I am not sure if this link will shed more light on the issue: http://www.sap-press.de/katalog/buecher/htmlleseproben/gp/ht... Good luck!

Muchas gracias a todos por vuestra ayuda. El problema no es "security-wise" que es la forma moderna americana moderna de decir "desde el punto de vista de la seguridae", sino cuál es el objeto directo del verbo "restrict".

security-wise > as far as it relates to security issues

I believe it simply means "related to security issues/matters".

If they know what they are doing, they can change such data anyway... and in another client... that is unless you really really really restrict them **security wise**.. but that would be to the point of them not being able to do anything.

Note from asker:
I guess it was not possible to understand nor to translate the original sentence. However, many thanks for your help efforts. As yo may see in my other commentar, the sentence has been rewritten and seems to have a bit more sense now...
