Information systems Description Information systems are the systems that Soffid will protect granting and revoking roles. Each role and entry point is bound to an information system. The information system can be created hierarchically. These information systems are managed in a tree structure.  Soffid allows you to categorize the information systems to facilitate the management, the available categories are Application, Container and Business. That categories are for information purposes only. The permission can be granted by using workflows.  You can access to Workflows page for more information.
