Posted on: October 22, 2018 | By: Guy Logan | Microsoft Dynamics AX/365

Within Microsoft Dynamics 365 for Finance and Operations, there are many security features that play a part in keeping information and data secure. Security is one of the most crucial aspects of maintaining a successful business and without it, several matters can go wrong. With role-based security, Dynamics 355 for Finance and Operations can manage and maintain the roles of employees, keeping data and customer information safe and secure. Here are a few ways that Microsoft Dynamics 365 for Finance and Operations keeps your organization’s data secure:

Role-Based Security

Through role-based security, organizations can set parent and child accounts to actively manage and maintain the security of information. Role-based security is based on hierarchy. For example, a management account can be the parent account to a salesperson account. Administrators can limit the data that certain users access using data security policies. These administrators assign duties, privileges and permissions to accounts, which can determine how much access accounts have to information. Role-based security keeps information secure and accessible to the right people.

Authentication & Authorization

Dynamics for Finance and Operations uses Microsoft Azure Active Directory (AAD) to identify users. Security permissions also control access to information within Microsoft Dynamics 365 for Finance and Operations. Privileges are based on roles and employees do not have access to information unless they are authorized by administration to do so.

Out-of-box Security Reports

Finance and Operations equips users with the option of out-of-box security reports to guide administration in maintaining security. These reports include user role assignments, role to user assignments, security role access, and security duty assignments. These reports help to view and administer security roles for accounts and with batch processing of reports, administration can run these reports as a batch job.

With Microsoft Dynamics 365 for Finance and Operations, users can be confident that data and information is safe.
