Authors can be given access to just the projects and tools that they need. An Author's access to any project on the instance can be granted or revoked. Only Authors assigned to a project can view it and work on it.

For tools like the IssueLibrary, the Rules Engine, or the Remediation Tracker, Authors can be given action-based permissions. Do you only want Author #1 to be able to Read IssueLibrary entries but not create, update, or destroy them? You can do that! Do you want Author #2 to have full control over the Rules Engine? You can do that too!

• Optional: Click Select all or Deselect all to quickly grant or revoke access across all projects or for all actions within a tool.
