User Management

Manage users and control access to your GraphNode platform through role-based permissions. Create accounts, assign roles, and ensure each team member has the appropriate level of access for their responsibilities.

Creating Users

Admin users can create new accounts from the User Management panel. Each user is assigned a username, password, email address, and a specific role that determines their permissions within the platform.

Navigate to User Management

Open the administration panel and select User Management from the sidebar.

2

Click "New User"

This opens the user creation form with all required fields.

3

Fill in user details and save

Enter the username, password, email, and select the appropriate role.

Note: Only administrators can access the User Management panel and create new user accounts. Newly created users will receive their credentials and can log in immediately.

User Roles

GraphNode uses a role-based access control (RBAC) model. Each user is assigned one of three roles that define what they can see and do within the platform. Choose the role that best matches each team member's responsibilities.

Security Auditor

Primary Security Role

The primary role for security team members. Security Auditors have full access to the audit module and can view all projects across the organization.

Choosing the Right Role

Assign Security Auditor to members of your AppSec team who need full visibility across all projects. Use Team Leader for engineering leads who need to triage findings for their teams. Assign Developer to individual contributors focused on remediating specific vulnerabilities.
