Users and organizations

Manage organizations, user accounts, platform roles, and signup protection for a self-hosted deployment.

User and organization administration is an in-product setting. It lives under Admin, applies at runtime, and never requires a chart change or a redeploy — on Helm or on Embedded Cluster alike.

Manage organizations

Section titled “Manage organizations”

Use Admin → Organizations to view, create, or delete organizations across the deployment. When creating an organization, set its owner and maximum member count.

If the owner email has no account, Dreadnode creates the organization and active owner membership, then emails a one-time account setup link. The owner sets a password through that link and signs in to the organization you created. Account setup preserves the existing organization, workspace, roles, and credits instead of creating a second organization during onboarding.

Use Settings → General for changes that belong to one organization, such as its display name.

Manage users

Section titled “Manage users”

Use Admin → Users to search across the deployment and inspect a user’s account state, organization memberships, and platform role.

From a user detail page, you can:

  • verify an email address
  • grant or revoke platform-admin access
  • delete the account

You cannot change your own platform role or modify a platform owner’s role. Only a platform owner can revoke platform-admin access from another administrator.

Protect signups

Section titled “Protect signups”

Use Admin → Security to:

  • limit signups from one IP address within a 24-hour period
  • block signup traffic from specific CIDR ranges
  • allow or block individual disposable email domains
