Roles & Privileges

What each Zeuslock role can do: Admin, User, Viewer, and Viewer User compared across dashboard access, browser extension, and billable seats — plus how plan limits and seat usage work.

When you invite someone to Zeuslock, you assign them a role. The role decides three things: whether they can open the dashboard (and whether it is full or read-only), whether they can use the browser extension, and whether they use a billable seat.

The four roles

Admin

  • Dashboard: full access — manage users, rules, settings, billing, and everything else.
  • Extension: yes.
  • Billable seat: yes.

Give this to the people who run Zeuslock for your organization. Every organization must always keep at least one admin.

User

  • Dashboard: no access.
  • Extension: yes.
  • Billable seat: yes.

The everyday member role — protected by the browser extension, with no admin dashboard. This is the role everyone added through Bulk Add Users receives.

Viewer

  • Dashboard: read-only — can see incidents, reports, and settings, but cannot change them.
  • Extension: no.
  • Billable seat: no — viewers do not consume a seat.

Ideal for auditors, managers, or security stakeholders who need visibility but should not make changes or be enforced on.

Viewer User

  • Dashboard: read-only.
  • Extension: yes.
  • Billable seat: yes.

A combination: protected by the extension and able to view the dashboard in read-only mode. Useful for a team lead who is also an everyday user.

Which roles can I use?

The roles available depend on your plan:

  • Starter and Free: Admin and User only, with a single admin.
  • Business and Enterprise: all four roles — Admin, User, Viewer, Viewer User — with unlimited admins.

Only Viewer avoids using a billable seat. Admin, User, and Viewer User each use one seat.

Choosing the right role

  • Runs Zeuslock and manages settings → Admin.
  • An employee who just needs protection while using AI tools → User.
  • An auditor or manager who needs visibility but makes no changes → Viewer.
  • Someone who needs both protection and read-only visibility → Viewer User.
