Attestation
Attestations require a manager to verify data to ensure that it is compliant. For example, a manager may need to attest to the Active Directory groups to which each of his employees belong.
In Attestation, you can, as a Compliance and Security Officer or attestation manager, for example, edit existing or create new policies.
The following tables provide you with an overview of the menu items and actions that can be executed here.
