Capabilities
This connector enables you to use File Access Manager to access and analyze data stored in Linux and do the following:
- Analyze the structure of your stored data.
- Monitor user activity in the resources.
- Classify the data being stored.
- Verify user permissions on the resources, and compare them against requirements.

Linux Permission Types
The supported permission types are:
- Read
- Write
- Execute
- None
None permission - The “None” permission is used when a user or group has no permissions.
“Others” group - The “Others” group, which is part of the Unix permissions, is represented in File Access Manager as a calculated Everyone group.
When a resource has permissions for the “Others” group, this group contains all users except the users and groups that have explicit permissions.
