Administration, Security, and Typology
Administration, security, and typology
Administration covers operators, groups, named rights, folder permissions, security zones, and audit. Named rights grant functional capabilities, such as starting workflows or exporting data; folder permissions control which objects an operator can see and edit. Security zones restrict where an operator may connect from and are assigned to operators. Audit trails and logs record changes and access. Encryption and password policies protect credentials.
Typology is the rule system that governs deliveries. Typology rules include filtering (remove addresses), pressure (limit contact frequency), capacity (limit volume), and control (raise warnings without filtering). Rules are attached to typologies, and typologies are applied to deliveries through the delivery template or delivery properties. Quarantine holds addresses that hard-bounced or were manually quarantined; blacklisting is an explicit denial. Address management and approval processes also depend on typology configuration.
Traps and rule of thumb
A control rule does not remove recipients. A filtering rule applied at analysis can still be bypassed if the delivery does not use that typology. Named rights are not the same as folder rights. Security zones affect connection, not data visibility.
Worked example: create a filtering typology rule that excludes recipients whose email domain is on a blocked list, attach it to the newsletter typology, and verify in the delivery analysis that excluded addresses appear in the exclusion log. Rule: test every typology rule with a proof and inspect the exclusion reasons.
