Setting Up Your Organization

Understanding Organizations

In WebDecoy, an organization is the top-level container for all your resources. Everything you create—domains, decoys, detections, and integrations—belongs to an organization.

Organization Hierarchy

Organization
├── Properties
│   ├── Property A (e.g., "Production Website")
│   │   ├── Domains
│   │   ├── Decoys
│   │   └── Bot Scanners
│   └── Property B (e.g., "Staging Environment")
│       ├── Domains
│       ├── Decoys
│       └── Bot Scanners
├── Integrations (organization-wide)
├── API Keys
└── Subscription/Billing

Organizations as Billing Units

Your subscription and billing are tied to your organization:

• One subscription per organization
• Usage limits apply at the organization level
• Invoices are generated per organization
• Plan upgrades affect all properties within the organization

When to Create Multiple Organizations

Most users need only one organization. Consider multiple organizations if:

Scenario	Recommendation
Single company, multiple websites	One organization, multiple properties
Separate billing for different clients	Multiple organizations
Completely isolated environments	Multiple organizations
Different teams with separate budgets	Multiple organizations

Creating Your First Organization

If you’re a first-time user, organization creation happens automatically during onboarding. Here’s what happens:

Automatic Setup During Onboarding

1. You see the onboarding screen after first login
2. Enter your organization name
   • Use something meaningful like your company name
   • Example: “Acme Corporation”
3. Click “Create Organization”
4. WebDecoy automatically:
   • Creates your organization
   • Creates a “Default Property” within it
   • Starts your 14-day trial
   • Adds you as the organization admin

Creating Additional Organizations

To create another organization (for separate billing):

1. Contact Support
   • Currently, additional organizations require support assistance
   • Email: support@webdecoy.com

Organization Settings

After creation, you can modify your organization:

1. Navigate to Settings in the sidebar
2. Click Organization
3. Update the organization name if needed
4. Click Save
