As a Remediate administrator, you can create new user accounts and assign group-based access privileges to them.
When you first install Remediate, you have one default superuser account: admin. Admin users have full access to all Remediate user interface functionality and can add and manage other users.
| Role | Username | Default password | Permissions |
|---|---|---|---|
| Administrator | admin | @Admin |

Manage user accounts
As an admin user, you can add, view, update or delete additional user accounts and assign them to groups.
The following groups are available to add to accounts:
| Permission Group | Description |
|---|---|
| add-credential | Add access credentials for a node. |
| add-source | Add a vulnerability scanner or infrastructure source. |
| add-task | Add a new remediation task. |
| remove-credential | Remove access credentials for a node. |
| remove-source | Remove a vulnerability scanner or infrastructure source. |
| remove-task | Remove a new remediation task. |
| run-task | Run a remediation task. |
Each group represents a user privilege that can be granted to a user account. If you do not add any groups to a user account, that user will only have read-only access to the Remediate UI.
In addition to creating user accounts manually, you can also configure remediate to pull user information from your LDAP or Active Directory server.
