Microsoft Analysis Services is Microsoft's platform for analytical databases. An .assecurityinformation file stores a database used by Visual Studio Analysis Services and contains security-related information for that database.
The file is a supporting database file rather than a Visual Basic source file or a general-purpose database. Analysis Services manages it as part of the associated database environment, so it is not intended for manual editing.
The format is associated with Microsoft Visual Studio, an integrated development tool for Microsoft Windows, and is not intended as a general-purpose data-exchange format.
An .assecurityinformation file is not designed to be opened as a standalone document. Open the associated Microsoft Analysis Services database using the Microsoft software that created or manages it.
On Windows, Microsoft Visual Basic is the program associated with this record. Microsoft Visual Studio and Analysis Services manage the database; a text editor or general database viewer will not provide a useful view of the file.
There is no sensible generic conversion for an .assecurityinformation file. Its contents are Analysis Services database security information, not a document or interchange format.
To move the information, use the supported backup, restore, deployment, or migration features of the relevant Microsoft Analysis Services environment. Exporting the file to a text or tabular format would not preserve its database security function.
