Users

Use the Users section to create and edit users, assign roles, and assign a set of computer groups to which the user has access and authentication method. Administrators can edit user passwords, email addresses, and contact information.



Important: Administrators need to select relevant roles for the user. User will be able to view/edit the reports and management menu based on the selected role. A user without any roles can only view reports under Security Configuration and has no access to the management menu (see Roles section).
Note: Administrators must assign appropriate Computer Group(s) to a user. A user can only view reports on the computers assigned to the user. A user without a computer assigned will not be able to login.
Authentication method can be chosen from one of followings:
  • Password
  • WebReport (See Data Sources)
  • Directory Server (See Directory Server)
  • Single Sign-On (See Single Sign-On)

All users need to be assigned to a computer group in order to log in to BigFix Compliance Analytics. Logged-in users can see compliance data based on their associated computer group.

You can set the Users account to configure multiple computer groups. To configure multiple groups, see Configuring multiple computer groups.
