About Organizations and Groups

Please also refer to the User help. For details on how to manage organizations, groups, and users, please refer to User Management.

Organization

FutureVuls’ organizations are used as “billing recipients”. In many cases, they will be the organization name.

Group

All vulnerability information and server information belong to a “group”. It is recommended to create a group as a unit to manage vulnerability information and server information. It is like dividing them by department or team.

Group Sets

The CSIRT plan includes a group set function that allows you to manage multiple groups across the organization. For details, please refer to CSIRT Plan>Group Sets.

User Authorization Settings

Users can be assigned one of three types of authorization based on their purpose.

Role name Authority Setting location
Owner Organization settings Organization
CSIRT (CSIRT plan only) CSIRT authority Organization
Group Admin Group settings Group
Member General user -

In short, users can be set to have “the ability to configure organizations” or “the ability to configure groups” for each user.

For example, billing staff only belong to the organization and have owner privileges, while server administrators who do not require billing settings are set as group administrators.

The following table shows the various permissions and operations that can be performed with each type of authorization.

Change Authority type CSIRT plan only Authority description
Owner - Can view and modify everything
CSIRT Can view and modify everything except billing-related items and organization member management
Group Set Administrator Can view and modify the settings and basic screens for the relevant group set and the groups included in it
Group Set Member Can view and modify the basic screen for the relevant group set and the groups included in it
- Group Administrator - Can view and modify the settings and basic screens for the relevant group
- Group Member - Can view and modify the basic screen for the relevant group
- Group Inviter - Can invite users who have not signed up to the group or users who belong to other organizations invited to the group…

Organization Permissions

You can set organization permissions (owner permissions) from the organization settings screen. All users who belong to the organization are displayed on the Members page. You can set permissions by clicking on the gear icon next to a user’s name.

Owner Permissions

Users with owner permissions can change all settings within the organization, including display settings and changing the billing information. With this permission, you can view, edit, and configure all groups within the organization and all group sets. The difference between owner and CSIRT permissions is that you can perform all organization settings, including payment settings.

CSIRT Permissions

CSIRT permissions can be thought of as owner permissions without billing permissions. Like an owner, you can change user permissions, confirm group memberships, and view data across all group sets and groups. With this permission, you can view, edit, and configure all groups within the organization and all group sets. The difference between owner and CSIRT permissions is that you cannot perform certain organization settings, such as payment settings.

Group Set Permissions

You can set group set permissions (group set administrator permissions) from the group set settings screen. All users who belong to the group set are displayed on the Members page. You can set permissions by clicking on the gear icon next to a user’s name.

With this permission, you can view and edit all groups within the group set and all group sets. Administrative permissions also enable you to configure group set settings and group settings. If you want to add multiple users to multiple groups, you can create a group set and add the users to it to grant permissions all at once.

Group Permissions

You can set group permissions (group administrator permissions) from the group settings screen. All users who belong to the group are displayed on the Members page. You can set permissions by clicking on the gear icon next to a user’s name.

With this permission, you can view and edit all data within the group. Administrative permissions also enable you to configure group settings, including adding and removing members.
