Security Reports

Download the security reports to assess data security and determine which areas of the solution a user can access.

Overview

We recommend that you conduct regular audits of your permissions to ensure your data security is configured correctly. You can download the following security reports to help you assess your data security and determine which areas of the solution your users can access:

• Permission Definitions: Examine your security definitions and see how your permissions have been configured in detail.
• User Permission Report: See which permissions have been assigned to each user.
• Data Security Report: Examine the populations and properties that a user has access to in detail.
• Content Security Report: See the metrics, dimensions, and concepts that are visible or not visible for the user.
• Security Impact Report: Examine how the security changes you made in the project change a user's access.

Permissions Definition

Download the Permissions Definition to examine your security definitions in detail. Although you can't directly see what data a specific user has access to from this report, you can still get a detailed understanding of the data and property values that are accessible across each permission.

1. In a project, on the navigation bar, click Security > Permissions.

2. Click Download Permissions in the upper-right corner of the Permissions room.
