[KB6968] Required user permission sets for tasks in ESET PROTECT and ESET PROTECT On-Prem

Solution

Required user permissions

This article assumes that you have the appropriate access rights and permissions to perform the tasks below.

If you use the default Administrator user or are unable to perform the tasks below (the option is unavailable), create a second administrator user with all access rights.

ESET PROTECT users: Create a second administrator user in ESET PROTECT
ESET PROTECT On-Prem users: Create a second administrator user in ESET PROTECT On-Prem

To perform tasks in the ESET PROTECT or ESET PROTECT On-Prem Web Console, a user must have the appropriate access rights assigned to their home group. Each user has an assigned permission set that defines the scope of their access level to various objects.
