4897: Role separation enabled

On this page

This event is logged whenever CS starts and whenever role separation is actually changed.

Role separation is a form of "separation of duty" control that you can optionally enable on your Certification Authority to ensures that the compromise of a user's account - or a user going "rogue" - does not compromise the entire CA administered by the user
