Settings profiles inherited from a partner

Partners are companies or organizations that deliver and manage security solutions remotely for their customers.

There are two types of partners:

• Resellers who assign products to their customers and manage them remotely.

• Companies that delegate security service management to each department, but also want to centrally oversee compliance of the protection policies that are common to the entire company.

To manage the protection software remotely, partners send settings profiles to their customers. These profiles appear in the management console with the CYTOMIC Nexus label.

Features of the settings profiles inherited from a partner

By default, you cannot edit or delete the settings profiles you inherit from a partner in the management console. Only if the partner marks them as editable can you modify certain aspects of their configuration. For more information, see Exclusions set by a partner and Software authorized by a partner.

Requirements

To receive settings profiles from a partner, follow these steps:

• From the top menu, select Settings (1). From the left panel, select Users (2).

• Select the Users tab. Select Allow my reseller to access my console (3).
