Asset permissions govern which protected assets a user can access and how they can be used after being accessed.
Permissions are created through the Security Management GUI or the cautil command line interface by specifying the name of the asset or asset group to which you want to give access to a user or user group. You can, conversely, provide the name of the user or user group to be permitted access to an asset or asset group. With this level of flexibility, you can manage security in the manner that is most comfortable for you.
Important! If a user is denied access based on asset permissions (or the lack of an asset permission to a protected asset), a violation results. It is important to remember that the presence of a violation does not necessarily mean that a user will be stopped from accessing the asset. The System Violation mode (QUIET, WARN, FAIL) and access type (for example, log) controls whether the user will actually reach the asset.
