Permissions Management

If you need to assign different permissions to employees in your enterprise to access your MDR resources, IAM is a good choice for fine-grained permissions management. IAM provides identity authentication, permissions management, and access control, helping you secure access to your HUAWEI CLOUD resources.

With IAM, you can use your HUAWEI CLOUD account to create IAM users for your employees, and assign permissions to the users to control their access to specific resource types. For example, some software developers in your enterprise need to use MDR resources but must not delete them or perform any high-risk operations. To achieve this, you can create IAM users for the software developers and grant them only the permissions required for using MDR resources.

If your HUAWEI CLOUD account does not require individual IAM users for permissions management, skip this section.

IAM can be used free of charge. You pay only for the resources in your account. For more information about IAM, see IAM Service Overview.

MDR Permissions

By default, new IAM users do not have permissions assigned. You need to add a user to one or more groups, and attach permissions policies or roles to these groups. Users inherit permissions from the groups to which they are added and can perform specified operations on cloud services based on the permissions.

MDR is a project-level service deployed and accessed in specific physical regions. To assign MDR permissions to a user group, specify the scope as region-specific projects and select projects for the permissions to take effect. If All projects is selected, the permissions will take effect for the user group in all region-specific projects. Users need to switch to the authorized region when accessing MDR.

Table 1 lists all the system roles supported by MDR. For example, some MDR roles are dependent on the roles of other services. When assigning MDR permissions to users, you need to also assign dependent roles for the MDR permissions to take effect.
