Trifolia uses two different methods of security:

  • Role-based security - Controls what a user can do. This includes all actions and controls. It controls what a user can select to initiate an action. Roles are assigned on a system-wide basis, meaning that the role does not change for the different areas of functionality within the application.
  • Permissions-based security - Controls what a user can view or edit. This controls the user's ability to view and edit implementation guides and Templates/Profiles. Permissions are assigned to implementation guides using the Permissions tab in the Implementation Guide Editor.  See the Permissions section in Authoring Implementation Guides.

Organizations

Trifolia organizes users and groups for each configured organization. For example, Lantana Consulting Group is configured to be an organization that has access to Trifolia, using it's own authentication method, and granting access to implementation guides and templates/profiles to users within that organization. HL7 is another organization configured to have access to Trifolia with its own set of users and roles.
