# Teams

**Teams** in CISO Assistant are used to group users who work together on the same security activities, such as risk assessments, compliance programs, or audits.

Each team has a **Team Leader**, optional **Deputies**, and **Members**, making it easy to reflect real-world responsibilities and delegation. A team can also have a dedicated **team email address** for shared communications. Teams centralize ownership, collaboration, and notifications by allowing CISO Assistant to automatically reach the right people based on their role within the team.

Tasks, assessments, assets, applied controls, etc., can be assigned to teams, in the same way as to users.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://intuitem.gitbook.io/ciso-assistant/configuration/organization/teams.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
