We are excited to announce a major upgrade to tags, teams, and permissions. The new features allow you to set up user groups (teams) and assign them more granular permissions based on tags.
Powerful New Feature Opportunities
These new features allow for several powerful new use cases, such as:
- Create teams based on a group of users.
- Set more granular permission for users and groups of users (teams).
- Create permission sets that can be assigned to users and teams.
- Assign permissions to users and teams based on asset tags (a group of assets).
New Generation of Unified Tags
The new generation of tags has been designed to work with all your assets regardless of type. These new unified tags will improve the overall asset management and coverage to help you decrease the overall risk. Here are the following key enhancements:
- Extended Matching Rules
Utilize a broader range of rules for precise asset matching. - Advanced Logic
Implement AND logic between multiple rules for more sophisticated matching criteria. - Comprehensive Tag Overview
Easily see the impact of each tag with a detailed overview of affected assets. - Business Impact Inheritance

- Team Structuring

Extended Asset Permissions Using Tags & Teams
With extended asset permissions, you can apply granular asset permissions for your users, using the new teams in combination with the new generation of tags.
Each team can get access to their own assets in the Security Center, making it easier to segment permissions for assets, delegate responsibilities, and have functional responsibilities in your vulnerability management process. Here follows a set of key elements:
- Targeted Asset Management
Users can now view and manage a subset of assets assigned to their team. - Tags and Permissions
Assign specific tags to a team along with permissions, giving users access to assets with the applied tags. - Divided Permissions
Efficiently divide and control asset permissions across your user base.

Current limitations
Continuous Monitoring and remediation have limited support for the new tags and certain asset types. This will be handled in upcoming releases and the platform's revamped versions of these two areas.
What's coming up next?
- Additional improvements to tags in upcoming releases will make it easier to see their metadata in various places in the Security Center.
- Teams will be an integral part of the new remediation, helping you to delegate action items via tickets to your different teams.
- The new versions of Continuous Monitoring and Remediation will receive brand-new tag support, enabling flexible trigger rules and filtering options.
