Security descriptors can impact the permissions of your items. As files are crawled and added to Aiimi Insight Engine, so are their security descriptors.
These descriptors can control who has access to what items. You can create rules that mean a user's descriptors must match an item's to view it. These controls supersede all other permissions like read access and privileged access.

This will open a New Security Descriptor Group modal
Name: Enter a name for the Security Group.
Description: Enter a short description for this group.
This can help others understand what the group is used for.
Match Mode: From the dropdown choose how many descriptors a user must match to view an item.
Single - For an item with any number of descriptors, a user must match at least one to access it.
All - If an item has more than one descriptor, a user must match all of them to access it.
Use the descriptor name and group name override to map item descriptors to users and groups with different names.
