Multitenancy with FortiCloud Organizations

Multitenancy with FortiCloud Organizations

FortiGate Cloud supports FortiCloud Organizations for seamless multitenant features designed for managed security service providers across multiple FortiCloud accounts. With Organizations, Identity & Access Management (IAM) users can view an organizational unit (OU) Dashboard for a single pane of glass view of assets across the entire Organization or OU. Administrators can add additional users with a fine grained permission model (IAM permission profile) and manage the visibility and access to full Organization or specific OU or OU member accounts. You can create an Organization and manage up to 10 accounts. For managing more than 10 accounts, Organization root account can create a Fortinet Developer Network basic account. This requires no additional license. See the following for details on various OU tasks:
