Users, roles, and domains

Version:

In Sitecore, access security is controlled on three levels:

user - an individual user
role - a collection of users. Roles enable you to assign access rights to a group of users instead of to an individual user
domain - a collection of security accounts

With these three levels of security you can control all user access to Sitecore functionality and website content.
