Customer Background
A corporate group owns dozens of subsidiaries, each of which has registered accounts with Tencent Cloud.
Scenario
The administrator wants to centrally manage all Tencent Cloud accounts within the group and, at the same time, refine the management based on account responsibilities, such as audit, network, and finance, or the subsidiaries (entities) the accounts belong to.
Customer Challenges
Managing the common attributes of multiple accounts in the group admin account poses risks such as unclear responsibilities and excessive permissions for the admin account.
Several basic cloud services are involved in the configuration of multi-account management, so the administrator must be familiar with these cloud services. In addition, the configuration process is long and cross-service manageability is poor.
Solution Overview
Tencent Cloud provides a solution for centrally managing accounts. With this solution, customers can quickly create a multi-account environment following Tencent Cloud's best practices.
1. According to best practices, accounts are classified into two types: core accounts and business accounts.
2. At present, the following types of core accounts are supported:
Group admin account: This account is used to manage multiple cloud accounts, including configuring permissions and viewing bills.
Security account: This account is delegated by the group admin account and is responsible for managing firewalls, scanning for vulnerabilities, and implementing other security measures for all accounts in the group.
Logging account: This account is delegated by the group admin account and is responsible for collecting, managing, and analyzing logs from all member accounts.
Entity admin account: Each subsidiary has an admin account for creating new business accounts within the subsidiary and making payments for all accounts within the subsidiary.
Financial account: This account is delegated by the group admin account and is responsible for viewing and managing the funds of cloud accounts within the group.
