Component Registration in a Multi-organization Environment

Component Registration in a Multi-organization Environment

Collector Registration

Each organization has its own registration password. The Collector installer specifies the Collector organization name. If the Organization field is left empty during installation, the Collector is added to the default Hoster account, as shown below:

After registration, the Collector receives the organization ID. You can rename the organization if preferred.

To specify the organization when installing from a command line, run the following command:

msiexec…\qn ORG=<organization name> AGG=

For more details about Collector installation, see Installing FortiEDR Collectors.

Core Registration

Most Cores are shared between organizations. It is possible to install a Core that belongs only to your organization by installing it on-premises. In this case, you must specify the organization during the Core installation process.

Collectors that do not belong to an organization cannot see that organization’s organization-specific Core.

For more details about Core installation, see Setting up the FortiEDR Core.
