Sorry Anton, I do not quite understand what the point is.

 

Suppose you have the rights to reset a password for a user. Don’t you have
the rights to do the search on this user and relatives?

This is the problem you trust your agent or not.

 

I think the access control is quite advanced in OTRS. You have Role and
Group. You can create a role and put groups in it. Then add the role to the
users.

 

If you want, you can put different companies into different groups and only
set the agent on the groups they are responsible to. This way could narrow
down the risk?

In this way, you even can set each user in each group. :)

 

Regards,

Jack

Subject: [otrs] company tickets access control

 

Hello, list.

I've come across a problem I can't overcome. 
Suppose I have a request to reset a password on some account for a user due
to account locked or password forgotten. I thought I could communicate the
new password to a user using external-email or external-note article. But it
is really too dangerous to do that!

The whole company tickets collection is searchable! I could find no way
control access to the tickets in one CustomerID except one using queues. The
queues are used for different purpose usually. 
The alternative is to quit using CustomerID and treat every  user as
individual customer. This is not convenient either as some bosses at
customers want to watch the requests of their subordinates.

This is the simplest example that comes to mind. There is a lot more
sensitive information circulating in the process of IT Service Delivery that
should not be shared across entire customer.

I would be grateful for suggestions to solve this security issue.

Regards,
Anton Gubarkov.
