Click **Security** in the Wasabi menu on the left of the screen.

The Wasabi Security Center lists the number of **Groups**, **Users**, **Roles**, and **Policies** you have in place. It also displays a [security health check](https://docs.wasabi.com/docs/security-health-check) "score" based on five critical security issues. The health check offers links to fix/enable security features and recommends additional security actions.

In the Wasabi Security Center navigation bar (lower left of the panel), there are three categories of security functionality options:

- **Account & Data Protection**, including Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA), Multi-User Authorization (MUA), advanced options, session timeout settings, and a compliance wizard.
- **User Security Standards**, including Root and user passwords as well as Single Sign On (SSO) settings.
- **Logging & Monitoring**, including administrative and compliance logging.

Notice that a Search bar is available to search security features using keywords.

The Security menu is visible to all sub-users; however, sub-user access to specific features varies based on the assigned policies.
