K2 Workspace Security

K2 Workspace Menu Items

By default, all users have access to menu items in K2 Workspace. Unless permissions are specified for a menu item for a specific group or list of users, that item is open to all users.

It is recommended that only a limited group of people be granted access to the Security tab. The administrator should restrict access to this tab as soon as possible after installation to ensure that people can't add themselves and lock out everyone else.

If you open the user permissions screen (in Security > Workspace Permissions) for a particular menu group, and there are no users listed, it means that all users are authorized. Adding a user to this menu group will grant permissions to that user AND revoke permissions from all other users.
If you do not specify user permissions for the Management Console, and a user gives them self permissions, it will appear as though the Management Console has disappeared from all other user's workspace areas as all other user's permissions will then be removed.
