Security Overview

Security Overview

Security in Data Archive is based on a system of users and the roles assigned to each user. Different roles grant a user different privileges to perform tasks in Data Archive. Users may have multiple roles.
There are two categories of predefined roles that you can assign to a user: system-defined roles and Data Vault access roles. System-defined roles grant privileges for tasks within Data Archive, such as creating archiving projects or accessing the Data Discovery portal. Data Vault access roles determine the data that users can access in Data Discovery searches.
After you have created users and assigned roles, you can create security groups. Security groups determine which users can access a source connection, and what data the assigned users can access on the source connection.
You can add a layer of security to data in Data Vault by enabling Dynamic Data Masking. With data masking, users can access the entities that they have access to but not the sensitive information in the entity. For example, a user has the same access role as an entity that contains credit card numbers. However, the user does not have permissions to view credit card numbers. When the user accesses the entity through the Data Visualization, Data Browse, or Search Data Vault options, the credit card numbers either do not display or display with different characters.
