Security settings error with web service

Hello, 

 

I'm trying to use javascript within adobe acrobat to make an external call using a web service and integrating with an SSO platform. While trying to pull the results of call back into PDF I get error "NotAllowedError: security settings prevent access to this property or method"

 

Is there a way to surpass that setting? What would the implications be?
