What is the difference between global administrators and domain administrators in SecurityGateway?

SecurityGateway has support for two types of administrators: global administrators and domain administrators.

Global administrators have access to the settings and database records for every domain configured on the server.

Domain administrators can only access information regarding the domain or domains that they are specifically allowed to administer.

Global administrators also have access to certain server-wide settings, such as data-retention rules, and security features such as dynamic screening, tarpitting, and IP shielding.

Domain administrators can have control of more than one domain.
