A protection policy on a script include is useful to protect code from application published to the ServiceNow Store.

A protection policy on a script include is useful to protect code from application published to the ServiceNow Store.

• A. True
• B. False
• C. Cannot be determined
• D. Not applicable

Answer: (A)

Protecting code when distributing apps is the goal here. Script Includes run server-side, so their internal logic could be exposed to users who install an app from the ServiceNow Store. A protection policy applied to a Script Include helps conceal or restrict access to that code, letting the app function normally while keeping the implementation details hidden. This makes the option useful for safeguarding intellectual property and sensitive logic in Store publications. While not a foolproof security measure, it’s the intended mechanism to discourage straightforward copying of proprietary code.
