Encryption Permissions

Encrypt- the user that has this permission can encrypt the comment.

Decrypt - the user that has this permission can decrypt their own comment or that encrypted comment, where the user was selected for encryption.

There are two permission conditions:

:Permission_ON: - current permission is enabled for the user/group in the row

:Permission_OFF: - current permission is disabled for the user/group in the row

For example in this case:

  1. Andrii Yermachenkov is a member of a site-admins group, but he has his own permissions granted: he is not able to encrypt the comment. He is able to decrypt only comments he is the owner of or where he was selected for sending encrypted comments.

  2. Members of the site-admins group (except Andrii Yermachenkov) can encrypt and decrypt the comments.
