Info<\/strong>: Sophos Central contains several predefined roles.

Something above the Super Admin does not exist. He has full control over the Sophos Central account, without restrictions.<\/p>\n\n Important:<\/strong> There must be at least one user with the Super Admin<\/strong> role.<\/p>\n\n Users with the Admin<\/strong> role have access to all features in Sophos Central. The only thing that is denied to an admin is the management of roles. So he can neither change his own role nor assign a role to another user.<\/p>\n\n Users with the Help Desk<\/strong> role have read-only access to all settings in Sophos Central. So you cannot change any settings yourself, you can only view them. However, receiving or deleting alerts, updating client software and scanning computers is enabled. However, they are denied access to sensitive protocols or reports.<\/p>\n\n Users with the Read-only<\/strong> role can view sensitive logs or reports such as audit logs and also receive alerts.<\/p>\n\n Not possible:<\/p>\n\n1. super admin<\/h3>\n\n
