Authenticate Cortex XSIAM users when using the Customer Support Portal.
When you add users to your Customer Support Portal account, users are sent an invitation to join. After they accept, users can access Cortex Gateway and tenants, but they cannot view any tenants in the Gateway and cannot view any data in the tenant unless they are assigned a direct role or user group role. Only Account Admins can make any changes in Cortex Gateway.
Note
You must be assigned the Super User role in the Customer Support Portal to add users in the Customer Support Portal.
The first Super User who logs into Cortex Gateway is automatically assigned the Account Admin role and has access to the tenant. The user who activates the Cortex XSIAM tenant will also be assigned the Account Admin role (if there is no current Account Admin role) or Incident Admin (if there is an existing Account Admin role) and will have access to the tenant. Any additional users including Super Users need to be assigned access to the tenant.
When users log into Cortex Gateway or the tenant they are prompted to sign into the Customer Support Portal using their username and password. This is the default method of authentication.
Note
After users are added to the Customer Support Portal and they accept the invitation, you can manage them in Cortex Gateway or the Cortex XSIAM tenant.
