Users can set their own preferences for several GUI aspects. These are set in the User Preferences panel, which is accessed by clicking the button next to the user name at the top-right corner of the screen.
Org selector: The Org selector allows a user to switch to a different org. See the Organizations section for more information on multi-tenancy in Velociraptor.
Password: If the deployment uses Basic authentication mode, this allows
the user to change their own password. See
Basic Authentication
.
Theme: Velociraptor offers a number of themes including several dark mode themes, light mode themes and some fun themes too. Find the look that fits you best!
Downloads Password: In a number of places in the interface, Velociraptor offers the user the opportunity to download collected data. However, in many cases this data might contain malware or other unwanted software that typically triggers Antivirus or other security software. This setting allows you to define a password to encrypt the zip files with to avoid triggering such software.
Language: Velociraptor’s interface can be switched to a number of languages. If your favorite language is not there, consider contributing a translation file !
Display Timezone: The GUI shows many timestamps throughout. Times are always shown in RFC-3339 / ISO-8601 which makes then unambiguous in all timezones. This setting switches the display to show all times in a particular timezone. This helps visual inspection but does not change the times in any way (just changes their representation). Internally all times are always serialized in UTC.
Server administrators can also view and customize the preferences for other users using the user_options VQL function.
The user_options function is typically used together with the
gui_users
plugin, to enumerate
the user accounts and then update their preferences.
