Security levels of VTS users

During installation of the VTS, a first user of the VTS is created. With this user, you can start using the Vienna Test System right after installation. The necessary access data is defined during installation (see Single workstation installation or Server/client installation ).

The user created during installation is automatically assigned the highest security level (Admin, security level 0). This user can create new users and define their permissions, as well as change all settings in the Vienna Test System.

When creating additional users in the Vienna Test System, there are different security levels that can be used to configure access to the settings and to the data in the system.

Note: There must always be one user who has the highest security level 0. Otherwise, the Vienna Test System can no longer be administered.

The following security levels are possible:

Security level	Authorization
0	All functions and settings of the Vienna Test System are accessible at this security level.
1	No settings can be changed at this security level. This means that no test batteries can be created or changed, no basic settings (e.g., folder for data storage) can be changed, and no tests can be installed. However, the Vienna Test System can be used for test presentation and access to the databases is unrestricted.
2	At this security level, the Vienna Test System can only be used for test presentation and scoring. The other functions are locked. The test results are only available to a limited extent: Only data records saved during test presentation can be scored after test presentation. Other test results cannot be called up.
3	At this security level, the Vienna Test System can only be used for test presentation. All other functions and access to the database are completely blocked.
