The Security Manager is used to lock down a storage network and define player permissions through inserted Security Cards.
Behavior
Once placed, the entire storage network becomes restricted—including for the player who placed it. To restore access, insert appropriate Security Cards into the Security Manager.
The player who placed the Security Manager can always open its interface. Server operators bypass all security restrictions.
Multiple security managers
You can place multiple Security Managers in the same network.
If a player has multiple active Security Cards, an action is denied if any Security Manager blocks it.
Fallback Security Card
When a Security Manager is active, network access is locked for all players by default.
To define permissions for players without a matching Security Card, insert a Fallback Security Card.
If multiple Fallback Security Cards are present, an action is denied if any of them blocks it.
Permissions

|---|---|
Insert | Whether the player can insert resources in a network. |
