People who use Cyberday are divided into different user groups with different rights. This article goes through the purposes of different user levels.
Admins
Access to Organization Dashboard + Taskbook + Guidebook. Can edit all content. Can manage account-level settings.
The founder of an organization's Cyberday account becomes the first Admin. The administrator can e.g. manage other users and select the requirements frameworks that guide the work of the organization.

External User
We currently have three different types of external users for different purposes:
Partner
We are having different partners, mainly consulting companies, who are working together with an organization directly in Cyberday. Partners can own tasks and themes. They can actively participate in the organizations security work, based on the rights the organization gives the Partner.
Auditor
An auditor cannot be set as an owner and will not be counted in any of the statistics, such as in the guidelines acceptance statistics. This is usually used to separate external users, who are doing i.e. audits.
We recommend inviting the auditor with the Employee role and sharing the most important audit-relevant reports as a report collection. With the Employee role, the auditor can access the Guidebook and report collections.
As an alternative way to share information, you can grant the auditor access to the Organization Dashboard by inviting them with the Team role.
External
"Other" external users cannot be set as an owner for tasks or themes.
This is for example used for a manager who is interested sin i.e. viewing, but not editing reports and who does otherwise not actively participate in the work in Cyberday.
