Delegation & Policy Control Reporting Tenant Management System Settings About

Group assignment rule

As a Nova administrator, you have the ability to automatically assign group management delegation based on properties of the group or group owner. This allows you to delegate responsibilities to localized IT support without granting them excessive access to your tenant(s).

 

To automate group management delegation:

1.From the Nova dashboard, go to Manage Administration, then Tenants.

2.Click on the ellipsis next to your desired tenant, and click New.

3.Click Add under Group Assignment Rule.

 

From here, provide your required group and/or properties, then save your organizational unit with this group assignment rule. View the image below for an example.
GroupOU2

 

You can enable or disable OU rules for each user by selecting the user from your chosen tenant, then selecting Evaluate OU Rules, then either enabling or disabling these rules.

Authorization policies

The Delegation and Policy Control (DPC) feature allows administrators to authorize rights and responsibilities to other users within their organization.

Creating and modifying authorization policies

Nova facilitates Role-Based Access Control (RBAC). That means you use it to grant permission for someone to do something, against something. For example, an administrator might grant permission for people to access a certain application. Or, an office manager might grant access for others in the office to use certain resources.

 

A Nova administrator configures authorization policies to specify who can perform certain actions within a tenant, and the conditions associated with those actions.

 

There are four pieces to an authorization policy:

·Tenant: Authorization policy is applied to a certain tenant. For example, North America.

·Delegate: The person to which rights are granted. They can do something with the tenant. For example, VP of Operations.

·Action: The activity the person can perform. For example, update user.

·Conditions of the action: Any conditions related to the delegate performing the action. For example, when the VP of Operations updates a user's information, you can specify whether they can see/update all of the user's attributes or only some of them.

When an authorization policy grants someone rights to perform a certain action, that person logs in to Nova to perform the action.

For example, a manager can perform certain actions (like setting out of office messages and granting access to SharePoint resources) to the users on their team. The manager uses single sign-on (via their Microsoft Entra ID credentials) to log in to Nova and perform the actions. Actions performed by the manager are pushed to other applications (for example, Exchange Online). It is important to note the manager's Nova instance only shows options that are relevant to the activities they can perform in the application.
