Managing Roles

Overview

You can manage your Roles on the User Management screen to:

  • View a Role

  • Search for a Specific Role

  • Create a new Role

  • Identify Spirion Defined Roles

Granular Permissions

Roles include these controls which determine whether users can create scans, playbooks, and custom reports:

  • Granular permissions to read or manage:

    • Individual Scans

    • Playbooks

    • Reports created by other users

  • Roles can have their permissions adjusted, edited, and be deleted.

Custom Roles

When creating custom roles for subsets of users:

  • Access is built through explicit inclusion by specifying what playbooks, scans and reports should be available.

Read Permission

  • The Read permission for a Scan Policy enables users to initiate a scan only.

    • This means the policy details cannot be seen via the create/edit screen.

  • The Read permission for a Playbook enables users to select a playbook when defining a scan.

    • Users with this level of access are not able to view the playbook itself until navigating to a result’s executor view (if authorized).

Note: Users will have full control over objects they create, even if their permissions to create new items are subsequently restricted.

Note: See Defining Access Controls for more information on how to manage your Roles' access to data.
