Understanding User Roles and Permissions

Administrator

Can manage users, teams, and SAML settings. Only Veracode Technical Support can grant Administrator access. A user with the Administrator and eLearning roles is considered an eLearning administrator and can manage Veracode eLearning administration tasks.

Creator

Can create, edit, and delete application profiles, as well as request and delete scans for applications that belong to the user's teams. Can only create application profiles for teams in which the user with the Creator role is a member. Can assign applications to teams. Can allow next-day consultations for an application. Can view the list of applications to which you have access. Can also promote a sandbox scan to a policy scan and delete sandbox scans. You can assign the Creator role for specific scan types or for all scan types. In addition, if your user account is restricted to specific scan types, you can only request scans of that type.

Delete Scans

Can delete scans. To be able to delete scans, you must also have the Security Lead or Creator role. Can view the list of applications to which you have access.

eLearning

Can access Veracode eLearning courses, assessments, and/or the Knowledge Base.

Note: Assigning a role to an eLearning user (learner) consumes one of your purchased Veracode eLearning seats when the learner launches a course. If a learner does not launch a course, you can assign the role to another user. You can only assign as many roles as you have purchased seats.

Executive

Can access Veracode Analytics and reports for all applications. Users with the Executive role must also have the eLearning role to access the Veracode eLearning summary reports. Can view the list of applications to which you have access.

Greenlight IDE User

Can access the Veracode Greenlight plugin in your IDE, perform Greenlight scans, and review Greenlight scan results. This role is only available to organizations that have active Veracode Greenlight subscriptions.

Mitigation Approver

Can approve mitigations for flaws. Can view the list of applications to which you have access.

Policy Administrator

Can access the Policies page, enabling the ability to create and edit policies, set default policies and notification rules, and assign different policies to applications. When assigned in combination with the Creator or Security Lead role, you can change policy assignments for individual applications using the application profile.

Reviewer

Can access reports and flaw details for applications that belong to the user teams, and propose mitigations, but cannot access the review modules page. Can review scan results and scan reports for sandboxes. Can view the list of applications to which you have access.

Sandbox Administrator

Can create development sandboxes for scanning code in development for applications associated with the user account. For applications which the Sandbox Administrator can access, can edit or delete development sandboxes and propose mitigation comments.

Note: You use the Sandbox Administrator role in addition to another role (Creator, Submitter, Reviewer, or Security Lead).

Sandbox User

Can create and edit development sandboxes that enable scanning code in development for applications that belong to the user teams. Can scan code within a development sandbox, delete their scan, review results of a sandbox scan, add comments, and propose mitigations. You can promote the sandbox scan to a policy scan, which counts toward your policy compliance score, if you:

• Have the Sandbox User role with the Creator, Submitter, and Reviewer roles
• Have All Scan Types or Static Scan selected

Security Insights

Can access Veracode Analytics where the user can view scan metrics of applications in the user's team portfolio, and custom reports.

Security Labs User

Can access the Veracode Security Labs interactive training labs.

Note: Assigning this role to a Veracode Security Labs user consumes one of your purchased Security Labs seats. You can see the number of remaining seats by clicking the Security Labs User help icon when assigning roles on the Admin page.

Security Lead

Can create, edit, and delete application profiles. Can access Veracode Analytics, reports, and flaw details for all applications. Can submit applications and approve scan requests made by Creators and Submitters. Can assign applications to teams. Can review all applications and scans, including receiving all notifications for these applications and scans, without any restrictions or team assignment limitations. Can allow next-day consultations for an application. Can promote a sandbox scan to a policy scan.

Note: You can assign the Security Lead role for all scan types or only for specific scan types. A scan type restricted assignment limits the type of scans you can create.

Submitter

Can request scans for applications that belong to the user's teams, has access to the review modules page, and can upload binaries. Can view the list of applications to which you have access. Cannot create, edit, or delete applications, or delete scans. If you are a vendor receiving a third-party scan request to submit a scan, you need to accept the third-party scan request first. Can promote a sandbox scan to become a policy scan. Can create, rename, and delete agents and regenerate agent tokens in Veracode Software Composition Analysis.

Note: You can assign the Submitter role for all scan types, or only for specific scan types. A scan type restricted assignment limits the type of scans you can submit.

Team Admin

Can manage users, including creating new users, resetting passwords, and updating roles. Can only view or manage users who are in the team that the team admin manages. Can add or remove team memberships from a user who is in one of the teams managed by the team admin. Cannot add users to teams that the team admin does not manage. Team admins cannot edit the roles for users who have the Administrator, Executive, Policy Administrator, Security Lead, or Workspace Administrator roles. Cannot create teams or business units, both of which require the Administrator role. When the administrator creates a user with the Team Admin role, the administrator assigns team membership to that user.
