CTERA provides a role, Compliance Officer and a permission, Manage Compliance Settings that you use to manage compliance. You can also set the Manage Compliance Settings permission for a Read/Write Administrator.

Only administrators with the Manage Compliance Settings can set up the CTERA Vault on a folder.

Setting Up Access to Portal Content Using the S3 API

Portal content can be accessed using the S3 API either using supported S3 operations in programs or using an S3 browser application like FileZilla, WinSCP, Cyberduck, CloudBerry, and S3 Browser.

A portal server must be designated as an endpoint. For details, see the description of the S3 Endpoint field in Editing Server Settings:General Settings.
