Title: Hiding Custom Attributes

Via the Outlook client, users cannot see any of the Custom attributes. However, if a user got access via LDAP, or some other programming function, that information would be visible.

 

Personally, I wouldn't add the SSN number to the directory as it is too sensitive to put into a non-secure database.

The ultimate weakness of violence is that it is a descending spiral; begetting the very thing it seeks to destroy. Instead of diminishing evil, it multiplies it... Through violence you may murder the hater, but you do not murder hate. In fact, violence merely increases hate...Returning violence for violence multiplies violence, adding deeper darkness to a night already devoid of stars. Darkness cannot drive out hate; only love can do that. -- Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.

Subject: Hiding Custom Attributes

How can I hide any of the custom attributes from the global address book?

For example, if I put all employee's Social Security number in Custom Attribute 1, how can I prevent all users in the company from seeing this field?
