Manage users and permissions at a system level
Before setting up Contrast and adding users, be familiar with Contrast settings for :
Users: You can add users one at a time, or bulk add multiple users. In the user menu select SuperAdmin, then select Users in the header to see all users and their status (who's awaiting activation, active or inactive, or locked out of their account based on a security policy).
Authentication: You can set up Contrast to use its own internal directory, or use an external directory like LDAP or Active Directory.
Groups and permissions: Access and permissions are determined by roles. Most roles are assigned with access groups . SuperAdmin and ServerAdmin roles are designated differently. You can also grant Protect permissions at a system level or when adding a new user or bulk adding users.
As a SuperAdmin or System Administrator, you can add users at a system or organization level.
Adding a user to a system group provides them access to the System Administration interface or allows them to perform activities across organizations in cross-organization groups.
You can also add users within a single organization with a defined role to determine their application access and privileges.
