User Management
User Management is used for high-level authentication and user’s roles. Only ROLE_SYS_ADMIN has rights to view, edit, and create in User Management. The users created from portal are NATIVE user type and the users from LDAP and external auth are EXTERNAL user type.
Role Name | Permission Granted |
---|---|
ROLE_SYSADMIN | All permissions. |
ROLE_ADMIN | All permissions except User Management module. |
ROLE_DISCOVERY_ALL | All permissions to Discovery module. |
ROLE_DISCOVERY_READ | Read-only permission to Discovery module. |
ROLE_DISCOVERY_STEWARDS | All permissions to Discovery module except Delete functionality. |
ROLE_DISCOVERY_GOVERNANCE | Read-only permission to Discovery module. |
ROLE_DISCOVERY_SERVICE | All permissions to Discovery module except Delete functionality.. The role is assigned to privacera_service_discovery user only, and it can not be assigned to another user. |
ROLE_MONITORING_ALL | All permissions related to Monitoring. |
ROLE_MONITORING_READ | Read-only permission to Monitoring. |
ROLE_ANONYMOUS | No permission granted. |
ROLE_USER | No permission granted. |
ROLE_DISCOVERY_READ_RESTRICTED | Read-only permission to Discovery module along with hiding sample values of classifications. |
ROLE_ENCRYPTION_ALL | All permissions to Encryption module. |
ROLE_ENCRYPTION_READ | Read-only permissions to Encryption module. |
ROLE_DATASERVER_ADMIN | All permissions to Cloud module. |
ROLE_CLOUD_ADMIN | All permissions to Cloud module. |
ROLE_EXPLORER_ALL | This role will provide all required permission for File Explorer. |
ROLE_EXPLORER_METADATA | This role will have METADATA (Listing) permission for File Explorer. |
ROLE_EXPLORER_READ | This role will have READ permission for File Explorer. |
ROLE_EXPLORER_WRITE | This role will have WRITE permission for File Explorer. |
ROLE_EXPLORER_DELETE | This role will have DELETE permission for File Explorer. |
ROLE_READ_ONLY | This role will have READ ONLY permission for Privacera Portal. |
Example: If a user is allowed read-only access to Monitoring and Discovery modules, then ROLE_SYS_ADMIN can assign role of ROLE_D ISCOVERY_READ and ROLE_MONITORING_READ to that particular user.
