# User Security

> Learn how to tailor access for each member of your Account. Using Role-based security, each user is assigned a combination of account and project-level permissions. This page details the permissions assigned by Account and Project Role.

## Role Based Security

**Account Access**

Account Administrators have administration access including being able to edit and create Users.

Be sure to restrict the number of Account Administrators you have.

**Project Access**

Once a User has their Account level role assigned - then assign the level of access to the Projects they need.
