Step 3 - Security Administration

With the download and installation of Sonatype CLM out of the way, you’ve now completed two of the biggest steps. Next up Step 3, Security Administration.

By default, and don’t worry this is covered in greater detail within this guide, there is an admin account (login: admin, password: admin123). This account is considered a Super User inside of Sonatype CLM. That is, you have access to perform any function. As you will see in the guide, we recommend changing the password for this account as a first point of action.

If your just looking to get Sonatype CLM up and running as quickly as possible, you can stop there. That account will allow you to move towards completion of the Nine Steps for Open Source Governance. However, if you want to go ahead and approach a more robust setup of users and roles, this guide will also walk you through the entire suite of security administration features provided by Sonatype CLM.
