Apex Central provides default user roles that you can assign to user accounts. User roles define which areas of the Apex Central web console a user can access and control. Although you can add access rights to a default user role, you cannot remove any of the predefined access rights from a default user role.

Note:

Only the <Root> account created during installation, or user accounts that have been assigned the Administrator or Administrator and DLP Compliance Officer user role, can create new user accounts and assign user roles.

For more information about adding or editing custom user roles, see the following topics:
