Specifying Administrator Access
Administrator Access can be useful to give certain people access to the RiskFilter appliance in order to
carry out specific tasks such as making policy changes or managing messages stored in the various
Queues.
The scope of the changes that these people can make will depend on the permissions that you set up for
them. For example, you can allow certain individuals to make departmental policy changes, yet not allow
them to administer the RiskFilter console itself. The Administrator Account Management screen is where
you specify the type of access that you
want your administrator/s to have.
