- Security group: Grants the permission to use the SafeSync service.
- Shareable links: Disables the permission to create new shareable links, and to change or remove existing shareable links.
- Team folders: Disables the permission to create team folders, and to change or delete existing team folders

To define the usage permissions, do one of the following methods:
- Log on to the SafeSync web console.
- Go to Administrator > Active Directory Integration. The Active Directory Integration screen appears.

- Check the default names in the following fields:
- Security group: safesync-users
- Shareable links: safesync-no-shareable-links
