Introduction to Snyk administration

Groups, Organizations, and Projects

Snyk has a hierarchy that allows you to control access to features and scans:

• Group: the highest level; for example, the entire company.

• Organization: the second level of grouping; for example, your team.

• Projects: the lowest level for individual projects; for example, a container image.

See Manage Groups and Organizations for details.
