User Profile Manager

User Profiles enable an administrator to group access permissions for hosts and Log Sources so they can be assigned to more than one user at a time.

Default User Profiles

The LogRhythm Global Administrator and LogRhythm Global Analyst are default system user profiles. They are automatically created by and enabled. These user profiles have access to the following:

  • Entities
  • Log Sources
  • Data Processors
  • Global AI Engine Events that Span Entities
  • SecondLook
  • Security Roles

New profiles can be created for the Global Administrator, Global Analyst, Restricted Administrator, Restricted Analyst, and SOAP API Service Administrator security roles. The security roles enable the administrator to assign access to specific objects within the Entity to individual users. For example, a number of Restricted Analysts can be given access to Entity A, but not access to the same Log Sources within Entity A. Restricted Analyst 1 can have access to Log Sources 1, 2, and 3 on Entity A, while Restricted Analyst 2 has access to Log Sources 4, 5, and 6 on Entity A. Note:

While users are granted access to CloudAI through the User Profile Properties dialog box in the Client Console, CloudAI data is available only through the Web Console and the CloudAI Interface. To use the CloudAI, you must purchase a license. Granting permission to the CloudAI without a license has no effect on your deployment. Contact your Customer Relationship Manager to learn more and/or to sign up for these services.

Restricted Administrator Security Role

The Restricted Administrator is granted access to specific Entities, Log Sources, and Data Processors. This security role can be configured with access to Global AI Engine Events or to a subset of AIE Events based on Entities and Child Entities.

The Restricted Administrator security role can be customized and granted permission to anything the Global Administrator security role has access to. Multiple Restricted Administrator profiles can be created, each with access to different administrative functions.
