   | Impersonate user | Option to impersonate other authenticated users for testing purposes and to view impersonation logs. For more information, see [Impersonate a user](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/access?context=c_ImpersonateAUser&version=australia&pubname=australia-platform-administration&ft:locale=en-US). |
   | Elevate role | Option to elevate to a privileged role to gain access to the features of High Security Settings for the current session.
