Users/Groups/Policies Introduction

Users

The users are the individual accounts that have access to a realm. To have permissions in a realm they need to be in a group. One user can be a member of several groups

Info
When a realm is created the first user that is created within it is called the SUPERUSER. It is the only user in the system who cannot be limited by resources or functionality in the system

↓

Groups

Groups are users that are separated into different sets of access credentials. Each group can be set to have its own specific permissions. This makes it easy to change multiple user’s permissions all in one sweep. These permissions are called Authorization Policies

Info
User must be assigned to at least one group in order to have access to system resources

↓

Authorization Policies

These are the rights that are given to each user/group in a realm. They can be specifically set so that some groups may have full, partial, or selective access to functions of a realm. These permissions are granted using statements

bgColor	#FFEBE6
