Revoke model

The default security model is the revoke model. Users have access to all functions by default, and you revoke access as necessary.

In a revoke model, you must revoke access in every security group to which the users are linked. If you do not revoke access in all security groups to which the users are linked, they will have access. If you revoke access differently in different groups, the users get the least restrictive access.

For an example of how the revoke model relates to security groups, see the "Security groups and the revoke security model" section.
