Security / Security Administrators Spec

Background

Security Administrators are tasked with maintaining Roles and permissions for an assigned group of people.

It is essential for regulation and auditing purposes that Security Administrators be able to perform certain functions (within defined limitations) within their assigned group, and explicitly not be able to perform those same functions within a non-assigned group.

Some of the most import issues that this spec covers are:
  • Ensuring that Security Administrators can only create/edit/delete user accounts within their own Organizations
  • Ensuring that Security Administrators can only assign/remove a Role if the Security Administrator has been given permission to assign/remove that Role
  • Ensuring the Security Administrators can issue password resets and unlock user accounts
  • Ensuring that Security Administrators can ONLY perform these operations on Organizations to which they are assigned
