Any help or advise will be appreciated.

Shashidhar.

Hi Goud,



The administrator role. This role has special access to all system features, functions, and data because administrators can override ACL rules and pass all role checks. Consider these implications when using admin overrides on ACLs.

Hi,



You need to have 'Security Admin' role beside the 'Admin' role in order to handle security issues.


This role will be available for the current session only.

Hello Shashidhar,



You will need to add the security admin role as High Security Settings provide these features:


  • Default property values: to harden security on your platform by centralizing all critical security settings to one location for management and auditing.
  • Default Deny Property: provides a security manager property to control the default security behavior for table access.
  • Security Administrator Role: provides a role to prevent modification of key security settings and resources. The Security Administrator role is not inherited by the admin role and must be explicitly assigned.
  • Elevated Privilege: allows users with the security admin role to operate in the context of a normal user and elevate to higher security role when needed.
  • Property Access Control: allows security administrators to set the roles required to read and write properties.
  • Transaction and system logs: are read only.
  • Access Control Rules: control what data users can access and how they can access it.

High Security Settings automatically activates the Contextual Security plugin if it is not already active. In addition, Platform Security Settings - High delivers the following settings and features in the context of increasing the security of your ServiceNow platform.
