Full set: 48 questions
Answer options
A: Security Administrator and Administrator Correct answer
B: Administrator, Backup Administrator, Restore Administrator, and User
C: Operator, Administrator, and Backup Administrator
Correct Answer:
A. Security Administrator and Administrator
Explanation

In PowerProtect Data Manager, access to audit logs is restricted to roles with high-level administrative and security privileges. Audit logs contain sensitive information about all system activities, user actions, and configuration changes. Therefore, only users assigned the "Administrator" role, which has full system control, and the "Security Administrator" role, which is specifically responsible for monitoring security-related events and compliance, are permitted to view these logs.

Why Incorrect

B. The Backup Administrator, Restore Administrator, and general User roles have operational responsibilities but lack the high-level privileges required to view system-wide audit logs.
C. The Operator and Backup Administrator roles are focused on day-to-day tasks and do not have the necessary permissions for security auditing functions.

References
