Overview
--------

A user's privileges determine the access the user has to MongoDB
:ref:`resources <resource-document>` and the :ref:`actions
<security-user-actions>` that user can perform. Users receive privileges
through role assignments. A user can have multiple roles, and each role
can have multiple privileges.

For an overview of roles and privileges, see :ref:`authorization`.
