Roles

Overview

MetaDefender Vault has several predefined roles - also referred to as User Type:

Administrator, Read-Only Administrator, IT-Helpdesk, Auditor and User

During installation, the first user is created as an Administrator. Any local user created afterwards needs to be defined during its creation.

Roles and Permissions

Administrator: has access and can perform any configuration required to the system, and to any file in the system. Administrator can release files (but cannot approve it unless also a supervisor), download and preview other users’ files.

Read-Only Administrator: has access to any configuration, but can not perform any changes. This role has no visibility to Processing History but cannot download/preview users' files.

Helpdesk Administrator: can administrate users (add/remove/edit), and perform administrative tasks in the system. This role has access to their own files only.

Auditor: An auditor role has access to any file the system processes and thus has access to Processing History, Outbreak prevention, Audit, Recycle Bin and Archive.
