Subscribe to Silver-lining Shield
- Only users with the Global Security Admin (GSA) role can subscribe themselves and/or other users to security related services.
- If you are a GSA and also require access to view/manage a security service, you will need to provide a separate non-GSA user CloudCreator account with a role to login to the service.
- Global Admins cannot enable subscriptions of security related services, only GSA users can do this. See Roles and Permissions for more information.
- If your organisation doesn't have a known GSA user account, and requires online security related services, please contact the Service Desk or your Sales Representative for more information.

2. Click the Virtual Clouds icon in the sidebar.

5. In the Manage Subscriptions screen, scroll down to the Global Security Admin section. Click the Silver-lining Shield slider to enable Portal access.
6. Confirm that you accept the Terms and Conditions and click Subscribe.
Notes:
- Subscribing to this service will automatically initiate a service request for the CCL Operations Team to provision a Silver-lining Shield tenancy for your organisation.
- It may take up to 3 business days for your Silver-lining Shield portal access to be enabled.
- You will receive an email confirming that your subscription has been enabled.
7. You can view your service request notification in the Recent Events panel, in the CloudCreator dashboard.
8. Once your subscription is enabled, you need to assign the Silver-lining Shield roles as described in the section below.
