Default Security Model

When you first install CA DLP, only one security model is active. This is the default security model, Management Group (Standard). Note the following:

• Users automatically assigned to default security model

  When a CA DLP user account is first created, the user is automatically assigned to the default model. (Technically, the user is assigned to the default user category, which in turn assigns the default security model to the user).

  If you subsequently make other security models active on your CMS, you can link the user to a different model.

  If you remove a non-default security model, any reviewers still assigned to this model will revert to the default security model.

• Default security model can be modified

  If required, you can change the model type. For example, you can change the default model to Policy (Standard) or Management Group (Standard, Self-exclude).

  If you change the model type, its name as shown in the Administration console will change accordingly.

• Default security model cannot be removed

  Unlike other security models active on your CMS, you cannot remove the default security model.

• User categories have default security models

  Each user category has its own 'default security model'. Each user assigned to the category inherits this model.

  This can be any security model active on the CMS, and can be different to the actual default security model.
