When adding a user to your organization's account, there are 6 roles you can assign them to limit their access to functionality and viewing information about targets in the system. These roles are:
Administrator - Full control of the account, users, and billing
Power User - Full target management
User - Access findings
Viewer - View reports and update/assign workflows
Marketing - Access Certification data
Billing - Manage payment information and subscriptions
Assigned roles have permission to perform the following actions in your organization's account:
Permission | User |
---|---|
Security Target Access lets you limit users to only accessing certain targets. Users can have tags set that allow them to access only targets with those tags in all sections of the application including Targets, Firewalls, Websites, Issues, and Events.
Security Target Access tags can be assigned when creating a user, and multiple tags can be selected. If you later wish to change a user's tags, you can do so by clicking their name in the User panel and going to Permissions.
For Discovery permissions, users with the Power User, User, and Viewer roles will be limited by their Security Target Access settings. If a tag is set, they will have no access to the Discovery portion of the application.
