About Cognition Security

Cognitions are governed by two levels of security that determine the types of changes, if any, a user can make to a cognition.

Cognitive Analytics Security Groups are the broadest category of security; a user must be in one of those groups to access or modify any cognition. The second level of security is individual cognition security, whereby permission to a specific cognition is limited to users who are members of one of the Cognitive Analytics Security Groups and an additional Security Group identified in the Security Group field in the Details workspace of the cognition.

If no specific security settings are configured for an individual cognition, all users who are members of one of the Cognitive Analytics Security Groups can access and modify the cognition.

Once you configure an additional Security Group to the individual cognition's security settings, users who are members of one of the Cognitive Analytics Security Groups but are not members of the additional Security Group can access the cognition, but they cannot modify it.
