Configure access controls and authentication

Learn how to manage authentication, API credentials, and user roles in the Medianova Control Panel.

Access controls and authentication define how users and systems securely interact with Medianova services. This page explains how to:

• Secure your account with two-factor authentication (2FA)

• Generate and manage API credentials

• Control user access through role-based permissions

These mechanisms help protect your account, APIs, and CDN resources from unauthorized access while ensuring operational control across your organization.

From the Medianova Control Panel, you can secure your account with two-factor authentication (2FA), generate API credentials, and manage user access through predefined roles.

Configure authentication and access settings

1

Enable two-factor authentication (2FA)

Open My Profile → My Account.

Select the Account Security tab.

Enable Two-Factor Authentication (2FA).

2FA adds an additional verification step during login.

2

Generate API credentials

From My Account, open the API Tokens tab.

Click Generate Token.

The system generates an API Key and API Secret.

• Access token validity: 4 hours

• API key and refresh token validity: 30 days

3

Manage user roles and permissions

Open Profile → Organization Management.

Select your organization.

Assign roles to users based on required access levels.

Role-based access control ensures users can access only the resources they need.

Available roles

Super Admin Full administrative access, including user management, CDN Resources, security settings, and billing.

Operator Technical access to manage CDN Resources and perform operational actions such as purge.

Billing Access limited to subscription and billing management.

Viewer Read-only access to CDN Resources and organization information.

Secured content access

Requests to secured CDN content require a valid, non-expired authentication hash. Once the hash expires, the content becomes inaccessible until a new one is generated.

Summary

Use the Medianova Control Panel to:

• Protect accounts with two-factor authentication

• Generate time-limited API credentials

• Control user access with role-based permissions

These controls are essential for secure and reliable operation of Medianova services.
