Accounts and organizations

Everything belongs to an organization: sites, scans, findings, credits and people. Here is how that fits together.

You sign up as a person and land in an organization. The organization owns the sites, the scans, the findings, the plan and the credit balance; people are invited into it with a role. Every query in the product is scoped to one organization, which is what keeps two customers’ data apart.

  1. 1
    Create the account

    Email and password. The address is verified before the account can do anything that matters.

  2. 2
    Turn on two-factor authentication

    TOTP with recovery codes, from Account → Security. Do this before you invite anyone else.

  3. 3
    Add your first site

    A site is one application: a hostname, its scan policy, its history and its repositories.

  4. 4
    Invite the people who need it

    Owner, admin, member or viewer. Invitations expire, and every invite is written to the audit log.

One trial per organization

The 14-day Pro trial is granted to an organization, not to a person, and can only be taken once.

Questions

Can one account belong to several organizations?

Yes. You are invited into each one separately and switch between them in the app; your role can differ in each.

Who can see my findings?

Only people in the organization that owns the site, according to their role. Nothing is shared between organizations, and every read is scoped by the organization on the way in.

What happens to my data if I delete my organization?

Its sites, scans, findings, reports and facts go with it. Ask support if you want a copy exported first.
