Privileges

A privilege is any permission associated with access to an asset; for example, a read privilege on a file.

The Privileges page displays privileges that were either gathered from integrated systems or entered manually and then processed by the Delinea Platform.

To view the Privileges page:

From the left navigation, select Inventory, then Privileges.

Filtering and Modifying Privileges Table

By default, the Privileges inventory table is sorted by name, in ascending order.

To customize the table view, you can:

• Filter the content displayed (see Inventory Filter Properties)

• Change the sort order

• Choose which columns to display

• Use tags

• Zoom in on an entity by displaying its single-entity view

For more information about these filter and display options, see Inventories User Interface.

Using Filter Options with Privileges

You can filter the results in the Privileges table with the following fields:

• Child Privileges: Actions that can be performed due to having a privilege; for example, all privileges that allow users to edit groups.

• Type: How privileges are categorized in the platform, based on these types:

  • Administrative: Tells whether the privilege is considered administrative by the system of origin; for example, a full admin or an admin on the entire IAM service of the application.

  • Data CRUD: Any data operation, segmented by create, read, update, delete.

  • Metadata CRUD: Any system operation, such as creating a virtual machine, segmented by create, read, update, detect.

Privileges can have one or more types.
