Assigning User Permissions

Overview

Skypoint AI aligns with the NIST 800-207 standard for Zero Trust. This is the most vendor-neutral, comprehensive standard, not just for government entities but for any organization. It also encompasses other elements from organizations like Forrester’s ZTX and Gartner’s CARTA.

This section is one of the key features of any platform as it ensures a secure and safe environment to work on data that is sensitive in all aspects. To provide security, there are certain roles defined to ensure that every user gets access to only those sections of the platform which they require, preventing unnecessary access to anyone.

Managing User Access on Skypoint AIP

Admins can add users and provide access to the Skypoint AI platform. An admin can add, edit, or remove users. A user can be an individual, a group, or an application. Users can have three types of roles:

• Admin
  • TenantAdmin
  • InstanceAdmin
• Contributor
• Viewer
• Copilot-user

On the platform, users can be invited via email and assigned required roles for full platform access or granted the Copilot User role for limited access to the Skypoint AI Copilot only. To get started follow the instructions below:
