Users (Tenable Nessus Manager)
Required user role when using Tenable Nessus Manager: Administrator or System Administrator
The Users page shows a table of all Tenable Nessus Manager user accounts. This documentation refers to that table as the users table. Each row of the users table includes the username, the date of the last login, and the role assigned to the account.
User accounts are assigned roles that dictate the level of access a user has in Tenable Nessus Manager. You can disable or change the role of a user account at any time. The following table describes the roles that you can assign to users:
Name |

Administrators have the same privileges as Standard users, but can also manage users, user groups, and scanners and view scans that are shared by other users. |
System Administrator |
System Administrators have the same privileges as Administrators, but can also manage and modify system configuration settings. |
