The Security Profile Owner (SPO) is the sole account owner of your Security Solutions account. The SPO has authorization to elect several Security Profile Administrators (SPA). The SPO can delegate user management to the SPA by assigning Master Control. The SPO, and SPAs with the correct permission level, may add, edit, or remove Security Users in MyAccount. Security Users that you authorize on your Security Solutions account have permissions to manage your security system.
