A new Acunetix Premium update has been released for Windows and Linux: 15.4
This Acunetix release improves the default roles. Acunetix offers role-based access control (RBAC) to efficiently manage user access. Thanks to RBAC, you can limit or authorize user access to Acunetix based on the user’s specific role.
- This release brings improvements to user roles. The 15.4 release standardizes the roles in line with industry standards, thereby reducing confusion around role responsibilities.
- The release also introduced new roles, updated existing role names, and expanded role permissions to enhance the user experience.
For further information about the roles, see Overview of users and roles in Acunetix.
