I heard the myUFL systems use “role–based security.” What does that mean?
Role–based security means a user will be authorized to perform a specific function or task in the myUFL systems (accessible through the myUFL portal) because he or she has a particular role. The roles you have will determine what menu item(s) or task list(s) you see when you log on to the myUFL portal. For example, students have the “student” role and will see the Gator Tickets link in the myUFL menu whereas faculty and staff will not. Most roles will apply to functional tasks. For example, employees that are assigned a “payroll processor” role will see links to payroll functions in their myUFL Menu.
