Basic Permissions: Enable users and approvers to handle fundamental tasks such as accessing the knowledge base, creating questionnaires, and updating answers.
Knowledge Base Permissions: Grant administrators the ability to manage and create content within the knowledge base, including approving or removing answers and managing documents.

These roles manage the Due Diligence side of HyperComply, covering templates, reviews, and vendor management:
Editor: Can view vendors, security reviews, and documents. Editors can also create, edit, delete, send, and rate security reviews, as well as manage the vendor list.
Admin: Includes all Editor permissions, plus the ability to manage security review templates and oversee the templates library.
