    SECURITY MODEL

    Security Model

    Security Center manages (internal) security through 3 entities:

    User/User Group privileges define


    Users what the users can do.
    View playback? Control PTZ? Export video
    User groups clips? Unlock doors? Change cardholders’
    rights?

    Partition Access rights define which


    Partitions entities users can see/access
    Camera-A? Door-B? Alarm-C?
    Users
    USERS

    User Properties

    Password expiry?
    User priority level?
    Access rights to partitions?
    Privileges?
    Logon hours?
    Default tasks?
    Remote control?
    USERS

    User privileges

    User privileges define what


    applications can be used,
    which tasks can be opened
    and what can be done
    within those tasks
    USERS

    Unconfigured users

    A newly created user has no


    privileges by default.
    If the user wasn’t created
    using a privileges template
    and that user does not
    belong to any user group, all
    privileges are undefined.
    USERS

    Remote control

    Remote control of a another user’s


    Security Desk → Monitoring task

    Required user privilege for remote control:


    User groups
    USER GROUPS

    User groups

    A user group’s members can be users, or other user groups


    Group privileges (allowed/denied) are inherited by group members
    All user configurations are available at the group level except:
    • Password settings
    • Logon schedules These user properties can be shared with other
    users by using the Copy Config Tool
    • Security Desk default tasks
    • Hot actions
    USER GROUPS

    Resolving conflicting privileges

    As users can belong to multiple groups, and groups can contain sub-groups, sometimes privileges
    may conflict.
    So, which takes priority, the user privilege or the group privilege?
    Answer: Neither.
    Deny overrides allow, and allow overrides undefined

    Deny

    Allow

    Undefined
    USER GROUPS

    Conflicting privileges

    User Sam is a member of 3 user groups at the same time:

    Privilege: Print/export reports

    New
    Operators Supervisors
    employees
    Group Group
    Group
    Undefined Denied Allowed

    Result: Denied (a “Deny” anywhere will always take priority)


    What if Sam’s individual profile is configured to “Allow”? Result:
    DENIED (a “Deny” anywhere will always take priority)
    Partitions
    PARTITIONS

    Users & partitions

    Access rights Access rights


    to Partition A to Partition B

    Partition A Partition B

    Access rights to both


    Partitions A and B
    PARTITIONS

    Partitions - example

    Imagine that Security Center is installed in a 4 floor office building. There are 4 different companies in this
    office building. A partition is created for each company so that users will only be able to see and manage the
    cameras and doors within their own partition.
    PARTITIONS

    Viewing partition hierarchies

    User management
    task showing users
    and user-groups
    Area view task showing
    areas, doors and cameras

    F4 – Toggles partition view.


    Now we can see
    Partitions → Areas → Doors →
    F4 – Toggles partition view. Cameras
    Now we can see in a hierarchical tree
    Partitions → User groups → Users
    in a hierarchical tree
