# Permissions

The ***Permissions*** panel can be found in every entry properties by clicking ***Security*** – ***Permissions*** – ***Advanced***.

Allow administrators to grant administrative permissions to standard users without making them administrators with [system permissions](https://docs.devolutions.net/server/web-interface/administration/configuration/system-permissions/).

The user groups based permissions system can give a very accurate control of the security. Here is an overview of the permissions window:
