Administrative Policies
The Administrative Policies tab outlines how the system manages administrative tasks and approval processes. These policies significantly impact the system's security, management, and overall control. Each action category is assigned a priority number and an associated approval workflow. When a change request triggers multiple policies simultaneously, only the workflow with the highest priority is executed. The priority hierarchy ranges from 1 (highest priority) to 11 (lowest priority), and the order of actions within this hierarchy can be adjusted as needed to accommodate evolving approval processes.
View Administrative Policies
Access the Administrative Policies screen by opening the User Panel in the top right corner and select Admin panel. The Policy Management screen open, select the Administrative Policies tab. You can filter uMPC and Impenetrable Vault using the dropdown box at the top right corner of the screen.
The following information is displayed:
Hierarchy: The priority list ranges from 1 (highest priority) to 9 (lowest priority). For instance, consider the scenario where you’re adding a new account (hierarchy 3) and simultaneously adding a new admin user (hierarchy 4). In this case, the system will utilize the approval workflow associated with the task of adding a new account (priority 3), as it has the lowest number among the invoked action categories.
