The first user to create an account on the Phishing Tackle platform is granted Primary Admin access. This means they (and only they) can manage users on the platform.

As the primary admin user, you may wish to add other users with admin level access. They will be able to access and manage all areas of the platform except adding/deleting users.

See the short guides below for managing administrative access to the platform.

 

NOTE: All functions below can only be performed by the primary admin user. If you do not have primary admin access, you will need to request the changes be made by the primary admin, or be upgraded to the primary admin.

 

Editing a user's email address

User's may require to change the email address they use to access the platform. This is a very simple process:

  3. In the resulting dialogue box, make the necessary changes to the email address and hit SAVE
  4. As noted in the blue box, the user will receive an email (to their original email address) confirming the change. Once they follow the confirmation link the changes will be made and the user can log in using the new details.

NOTE: The user's password, training and phishing history will be unchanged.

  3. Enter the user's name, email address and any relevant security tags and hit "SAVE"
    • NOTE; Admin users are created with the highest level of security access (below primary admin). Use security roles only if you want to reduce access to the platform for that user(I.e. add a security role with No Access/Read Only access to certain areas)
    • For more information on security roles, see this article

This will send an email to the new user with a link to create a new password. Once they have done this they'll have admin access to the platform.

If a user does not confirm their account (by creating a password) within 24 hours they will need a new invitation sent, to find out how to send a new invitation, see this article.
