Provision Users

Within My OPSWAT Central Management, there are 2 types of users

  • console users: who can log into the management console to manage products, review reports, and configure an account
  • end-users: who interact with MetaDefender Endpoint to access protected applications/resources via Next Generation VPN methods

Administrators have the ability to create users (both end-users and console users). This document covers how to provision console users who will access the My OPSWAT Central Management console. To provision end-users, please follow this guideline.
