Bitdefender cloud security products FAQ

This section summarizes the most frequent questions regarding the Bitdefender cloud security products.

I am a managed service provider and I have several technicians in charge with security management for my customers. Do I need to create a company for each one?

You can create and customize multiple users for your company. Each user can be assigned specific rights and access to specific companies.

You can allocate each technician an account custom tailored to the actions they need to perform and the companies they are assigned to. For more information refer to Managing user accounts

I am a managed service provider and I need to manage a new customer. Does this require any action from the customer?

There is no need to create a user for the customer if only your technicians will manage security for the company.

Create the company and assign administrative rights to any of your technicians in order to start managing the network.

I don't want to have my protection managed by another company and don't want anybody outside my company to view (customers, computers, policies, reports).
