Setting Up Multi-Tenancy

LAST UPDATED: JAN 7, 2024

Multi-tenancy is a feature designed to support organizations in managing multiple clients and business units. Business units include subsidiaries, departments, teams, hierarchical tiers within departments or teams, and organizational divisions in distant geographic regions (see Distributed Multi-Tenancy). In D3, multi-tenancy is implemented through sites, each operating independently with isolated data, workflows, and configurations.

Creating Sites

  1. Sign in to D3 vSOC.

Alternative Login Methods

In addition to using general authentication (username and password on the D3 vSOC login page), users can also use SAML authentication methods enabled by IdPs to log in, such as:

Distributed Multi-Tenancy

Distributed multi-tenancy is applicable for organizations with operations spanning multiple countries. While only a minority of organizations require this setup, distributed multi-tenancy is an approach to ensure compliance with regional data regulations.

For example, a master tenant could oversee sub-tenants in the US, Europe, and Asia-Pacific, each complying with their region's data regulations.
