Protect your account from phishing with role-based permissions in Mews Operations

Mews PaymentsSecurity

You protect your account from phishing when you limit access to sensitive actions and data. You do this in Mews Operations, in the User management section, by assigning roles with role-based permissions. Role-based permissions reduce phishing risks by limiting what each user can see and do. With these permissions you can assign access based on job responsibilities, restrict sensitive actions like exporting data or editing billing details and avoid giving full access to all users, for example, a front office team member can view reservations but cannot export financial reports. This limits the impact if someone gains access through a phishing attempt.

In this article, you can learn about:
