Assigning Roles in Organizations and Teams

CybeDefend provides distinct roles for Organizations and Teams, each granting specific permissions. Update roles from Organization or Team settings to ensure everyone has appropriate access levels.

Each Organization has at least one Administrator/Creator, and each Team has at least one Team Manager.

Organization Roles

Role	Description	Key Permissions
Administrator	Top-level authority. Cannot modify their own role or another Admin’s role.	Manage organization settings Add/remove users Update user roles Create/delete teams Read logs Full access
Manager	High-level authority but slightly less than Administrator.	Manage integrations Add/remove users Create teams Read logs
Billing Manager	Focuses on financial or billing aspects within the organization.	Access billing settings Read organization info
Member	Standard member with basic read and limited write rights.	Read organization information Use assigned tools

Team Roles

Role	Description	Key Permissions
Team Manager	Leads the team. Cannot modify their own role or another Team Manager’s role.	Manage team settings Create/remove users Update user roles Create projects Read logs Start scans
Analyst Developer	Focuses on analyzing scan results and possibly contributing code fixes.	Read and create reports Change vulnerability states Start scans Full read on scan results

All roles inherit the Organization’s overarching permissions, but these team roles define additional capabilities within each team.
