Team-Based Security

Two factors determine access to data in team-based security:

• Membership in the project team.

• Project security profile of the member.

In team-based security, access to a project is limited to people defined as project team members by the project manager or administrator. When you use team-based security, the project manager or administrator is automatically added to the team and granted access to project data.

Project managers and administrators can grant access to a project by assigning members to the project team. Being a project team member in a team-based security system, however, does not necessarily grant access to any project data. The user must be a team member and have a project role with a security profile that permits access to project data.

Viewing Security Data

There are two different views of the same security data:

• The Project Definitions - Team page lists all members of a project team with each team member's project role.

• The Project Security page lists all projects for which the user is a team member, and the member's security profile for each project.

Copying a Team-Based Project

You can copy team members and their security profiles when you copy projects.
