The topics discussed in this chapter require IQ Server with one of the following licenses: Lifecycle,
Firewall, or Auditor.

This chapter will cover the creation and management of user accounts, passwords, and associated permissions. For the most part this will cover interaction with the IQ Server.

It is important to note, that this chapter is aimed at system
administrators, and isn’t a guide for other users. Most areas discussed here
will require a user account that has been assigned to the
System and/or Policy Administrator role.
