Setup and Manage Insight Administrators

Once the tenant administrative user of an organization is onboarded into NetWitness Cloud Portal, the administrative user can perform the following tasks:

  • Manage other administrative users - add, delete, enable and disable administrators, and update the profiles.
  • Install, configure, and manage sensors.
  • Configure and manage multi-factor authentication (MFA) for administrators.
  • Temporarily enable or disable access to other administrators, instead of deleting them permanently.

Use the following table as a guide to the user management tasks that you can perform.
