Admin Guide
Manage users, teams, projects, virtual machines, and system settings.
Getting Started
If you are setting up tiCrypt for the first time or taking over administration, follow these steps in order.
| Step | Action | Guide |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Configure system settings: set your organization name, logos, session timeouts, and registration policies | System Settings |
| 2 | Create teams: teams define resource quotas (CPU, memory, storage) and every active user must belong to at least one team | Teams |
| 3 | Create user profiles: profiles bundle roles and permissions into reusable templates | User Profiles |
| 4 | Set up onboarding templates: automate user provisioning by pre-assigning profiles, teams, projects, and certifications | Onboarding |
| 5 | Activate users: review pending registrations and activate accounts (or apply onboarding templates for bulk provisioning) | Users |
| 6 | Create projects (optional): organize resources with access-controlled project tags and security requirements | Projects |
| 7 | Configure escrow (recommended): set up key recovery groups so user data can be recovered if a private key is lost | Escrow |
| 8 | Configure VM infrastructure: register hosts, storage pools, images, and hardware setups | Virtual Machines |
