About Custom Email User Roles

You can assign custom roles to allow delegated administrators to access the following on the Security Management appliance:

  • All reports (optionally restricted by Reporting Group)

  • Mail Policy reports (optionally restricted by Reporting Group)

  • DLP reports (optionally restricted by Reporting Group)

  • Message Tracking

  • Quarantines

  • Log Subscription

Detailed information about each of these items follows this section. In addition, all users granted any of these privileges can see the System Status, available under the Management Appliance tab > Centralized Services menu. Users assigned to custom email user roles cannot access the CLI.

Note
Custom user roles on the Email Security appliance offer more granular access than do user roles on the Security Management appliance. For example, you can delegate access to mail and DLP policies and content filters. For details, see the “Managing Custom User Roles for Delegated Administration” section in the “Common Administration” chapter of the documentation or online help for your Email Security appliance.
