# Service account

The embedded MariaDB database server is installed as a service (Windows) or daemon (Linux), respectively. The service account details differ on Windows and Linux.

Windows

The VASCO MariaDB service runs as the local Network Service account. This is a predefined local account with minimum privileges on the local computer.

Linux

On Linux, a mysql user account is created. This daemon user account is assigned the correct permissions to run the mysql daemon.
