Access management in Smart Web Security
In this section, you will learn:
About access management
In Yandex Cloud, all transactions are checked in Yandex Identity and Access Management. If a subject does not have the required permission, the service returns an error.
To grant permission for a resource, assign roles for this resource to the subject that will perform operations. Roles can be assigned to a Yandex account, a service account, federated users, a user group, or a system group. For more information, see How access management works in Yandex Cloud.
Roles for a resource can be assigned by users who have the smart-web-security.admin
role or one of the following roles for that resource:
admin
resource-manager.admin
organization-manager.admin
resource-manager.clouds.owner
organization-manager.organizations.owner
Which resources you can assign a role for
You can assign a role for an organization, cloud, or folder. Roles assigned for an organization, cloud, or folder also apply to security profiles in them.
