Roles

In Keeper, Roles are used to define permissions and security policies for users within an organization. They help administrators control access, enforce security measures, and streamline account management. Here’s how Roles work within Keeper:

Key Features of Roles in Keeper

  1. Permission Management – Roles allow admins to assign different levels of access to users, controlling what they can view or modify within Keeper.
  2. Security Policies – Roles can enforce security requirements such as multi-factor authentication (MFA), password complexity rules, and session timeouts.
  3. Delegated Administration – Admins can create hierarchical roles, giving team leaders or IT personnel specific admin capabilities without granting them full system control.
  4. Shared Folders & Record Management – Roles can define who can create, edit, and share records or folders within Keeper’s vault.
  5. Auditing & Compliance – Admins can track activity and enforce policies across different roles to meet compliance requirements.

Common Role Examples

  • Super Admin – Full control over all settings, users, and security policies.
  • IT Admin – Manages user accounts, permissions, and integrations but may have limited access to stored records.
  • Team Manager – Can manage user access within their department or project.
  • User – Standard access to their Keeper Vault with permissions based on policies set by admins.
