Using Groups

3min

Scan Groups can be used to manage access to scans for the Hexiosec ASM users in your organisation. Used in conjunction with organisation and group roles, they can provide control over who has access to scans, and how they can interact with them.

This article covers example scenarios that provide ideas of how groups could be used in your organisation. To manage groups, you will need to have the role of owner or admin for your organisation.

Scenario 1 - A user having different access levels

Using groups, you can allow a user to have different levels of access for each scan group.

Scenario 2 - Grouping by domain

If you have scans for multiple domains within your organisation, you can use groups to manage who can see and manage the scans for those different areas of the business. Separate groups could be used for customer or vendor scans. This allows you to segregate reporting so that access is limited where necessary.

There are three scan groups, one for each domain, plus a group for customer scans.

Scenario 3 - Grouping by scan type

By creating a group for each type of scan, you can get an easy visual representation of who has access to each scan type. Add the users to the group and assign the role that they need.
