  • If your Organization does not Auto-Approves members, you will have the ability to ‘Remove from Company’ and to ‘Delete User’

  • If your Organization does auto-approve members, you will not have the ability to Remove users, only to delete users.

If you would like to change your approval options, please contact your Account Manager directly, or submit a https://cisecurity.atlassian.net/servicedesk/customer/portal/15/group/35/create/143 ticket requesting this change be made.

Removing a User from the Company does not delete the account form WorkBench. The User can still access the free CIS resources, but not the SecureSuite resources such as your organization’s tailored Benchmarks and the CIS-CAT Product Suite

Deleting a User will remove the user’s entire WorkBench account and they will need to re-register or be added by the Organizations Account Manager

 

If you attempt to add a user with a domain which is not yet associated with your SecureSuite account, please submit a https://cisecurity.atlassian.net/servicedesk/customer/portal/15/group/35/create/143 ticket and we will have your Account Manager update your information to include the new domain(s).
