There are multiple levels of  security in SigmaPro that lock down tasks within the task itself (Advanced Security options, Edit SigmaPro->Security options, etc).  The tasks are secured to the current user. 

Are you referring to the ability to disable all parameter tampering security so that people can access any ticket by altering the URL but then validating security for the task after it's loaded and then redirecting to a "Not Authorized" page if security is not met, then yes this is in SigmaPro 8.0.  It's being tested internally and should be released soon.  I think part of your reason for this was so that you could use Axon to send project reports with direct links to the tasks in SigmaPro?  Would you be willing to help BETA Test this?

You can disable the parameter encryption in SigmaPro.  I remember talking to you about this, I'll revisit the support ticket.   If you can send me a copy of your module I test for this to make sure it works.   There will be one more release of Everest this week and the final release candidate of the core SigmaPro module will be released next week.   I think the new version will be exactly what your looking for, but it would be great if you could test this out and provide feedback.
