Manage Roles

  • Updated on Nov 11, 2025

Overview

The Command Center allows you to define Roles. These roles can be defined by user attributes (e.g., role type or emails), device attributes (e.g., device ownership type, OS, and device serial number), and/or Service Accounts. Once configured, Cloud Secure Edge (CSE) Roles can be attached to Access Policies, and then Access Policies are attached to CSE-protected Services.
