Security and Roles

Complete LDAP configuration steps.
The built-in local repository of users, groups and roles is only for POCs and demo usage. To better comply with more strict security requirements it is advised to leave the Local User Registry Management disabled in System Parameters (it is disabled by default). When disabled, DPOD will not allow to add or edit any users, roles or groups, and will display a relevant error message.
Create Custom Roles for users or groups to restrict the permissions each user has in the system.
For example, allow the development team of a certain group of APIs to see transactions of their own APIs, while preventing access to other teams' APIs.
Secure the installation by replacing self signed certificate of the web console and limiting admin dashboard to specific IP addresses.
