- **Feature Sets** - Different divisions, departments, or teams can have different sets of features turned on or off (e.g. this department does continual background face authentication, while this other team has watermarks configured).  For more information, see [Features](docId:_HZX326waEmkArm7aBbhG) 
- **Organizational Structure **- Tetherfi supports 4 levels of organizational structure for the purposes of defining who can see, do, and administer what.  For more information, see [Organizational Structure](docId\:fNzhJ8-4t7-brpYySwkzT) 
- **Users** - Secure Work from Home has 3 primary user profiles - administrators, supervisors, and users (or agents).  Agents can only be associated with a team in the organizational structure.  For more information, see [User Management](docId\:MvJ7aa-QttNlMcH7Xlvnf) 
- **Role-Based Access Control** - Roles are used to control what administration capabilities (if any) and/or reporting capabilities (if any) a user has.  For more information, see [Roles](docId\:FSya_Bvujbjw2wgCH3eRV) 
- **Remote Security Rules** - Secure Work from Home allows highly configurable control over what should happen when certain events occur (e.g. when face authentication fails), and these Rules can be different for different user roles.  For more information, see [Remote Security Rules](docId\:mXQk0WMZ-IyE61wlIOE2h)
