Vultr allows you to create individual user accounts within your organization’s account, enabling team members to access services using their own login credentials. You can assign specific permissions to each user, controlling which actions they are authorized to perform and which resources they can access. Implementing user accounts with defined roles and access levels helps enforce organizational security policies and ensures proper management of your Vultr services.
