4.3.3. Permissions Management

As explained in the Overview section, IRM supports a simple yet powerful Permissions model, including Site Groupings and Policies that are assigned to different User Teams or individual Users.

All management of permissions is done by Administrators via the Global Console, which provides access to dedicated pages that enable managing Site Groupings and Policies.

The following subtopics cover permissions management in more detail, including the following:

Managing Site Groupings - creating new, editing and removing existing Groupings
Managing Policies - creating new, editing and removing existing Policies

For more details about the main concepts and terminology used for these features, see Permissions - Concepts & Terminology and Permissions Model.

Important: It is vital to properly understand the IRM permissions model, by reading the overview sections listed above, before attempting to define Site Groupings and Policies.
