# Disabling sudo for yum

By default, `sudo` access for `yum` is enabled on the Data Science & AI Workbench platform. You can easily disable it, however, if your organization requires it.

1. Log in to Workbench, select <Icon icon="circle-user" iconType="light" /> **Menu** in the top right corner, and click the **Administrative Console** link displayed at the bottom of the slide out window.

2. Click **Manage Resources**.

3. Log in to the Operations Center using the Administrator credentials [configured after installation](../../install/config).

4. Select **Configuration** from the menu on the left.

5. Verify that the `anaconda-enterprise-anaconda-platform.yml` configuration file is selected in the **Config map** drop-down menu.

   <Note>
     Anaconda recommends that you make a backup copy of this file since you will be editing it directly.
   </Note>

6. Scroll down to the `sudo-yum` section of the Config map:

   </Frame>

7. Change the setting from `default` to `disable`:

   ```sh theme={null}
   sudo-yum: disable
   ```

8. Click **Apply** to save your changes.

9. To update the Workbench server with your changes, restart services by running these commands *on the master node*:

   ```sh theme={null}
   sudo gravity enter
   kubectl get pods | grep ap- | cut -d' ' -f1 | xargs kubectl delete pods
   ```

To re-enable sudo yum, simply change this Config map setting back to `default`, save your changes, and restart services.
