GOLDVault User Guide > GOLDVault Security

You can use host security settings (through CIM GOLD Security > Setup screen, System tab) to manage security for the GOLDVault application and what individual users can do in the application. This is covered below. You can also manage the security of documents, categories, subcategories, and file types and other actions that can be performed within GOLDVault on the File Access Security Setup screen, which is described there. Where there is overlap, the host settings take precedent.
