PAAS supports the following ObjectScale protection modes. These protection modes require PAAS to be enabled.
Note: Platform protection mode supports appliance platform only.
PAAS relies on a separation of duties between Management Users (who submit requests to perform actions) and Approver Users.
The intent of PAAS is that the Management User requesting an action and the Approver User approving the action are different users. While it is technically possible for customers to create a Management User and an Approver User that are the same person, such a setup defeats the purpose of PAAS.
