Platform roles
Most access in Citrix SecurSpaces™ is granted through project roles, which apply inside a single project. Platform roles are different: they apply across the whole platform, whichever organization or project the person belongs to.
Platform roles are assigned in System Configuration, under Platform Roles. Only a platform administrator can open that page.
Available roles
| Role | What it grants |
|---|---|
| Security officer | Access to security-sensitive areas such as system analytics and audit data. Only a platform administrator can assign or remove this role. |
| Data privacy officer | Names the contact for data privacy responsibilities on the platform. |
The security officer role also carries privileges that project roles cannot grant. For example, a security officer can turn on Bypass Schedule for a workspace, so that it keeps running instead of pausing when idle. See Workspace idle detection.
