Global Command Center - Administration Tool
The Administration Tool restricts access to administrative functions based on an individual's role and responsibilities. It also provides extensive auditing facilities that enable you to track and trace configuration changes.
Enforcing Best Practicers with Role-Based Administration
Some configuration changes are routine, others profound and far-reaching. Role-based administration allows you to determine which management functions can be viewed or changed based on each user's network responsibilities. For example, one administrator may be allowed only to change DNS entries, another to view event logs, and a third to create rules associated with a specific network service or protected server. Role-based administration ensures the appropriate division of management responsibility while offering maximum flexibility.
Monitor and Manage Configuration Changes
Comprehensive auditing features make it easy to detect and track configuration changes and determine when and why those changes were made. This is especially critical in industries such as financial services, which are required to demonstrate compliance to regulatory controls concerning privacy and information assurance. A Security Officer can designate varying levels of configuration authority to multiple administrators.
