# Manage user accounts

Linux is a multi-user operating system where:

- root is the administrator who can perform privileged operations such as configuring the system, accessing to all interfaces, installing or removing software, etc.
- all other users are unprivileged and cannot do administrator-level operations.

Digi recommends you set a secure root password and create regular users for your applications.
