# Settings

The **Settings** page in CISO Assistant is where instance-wide configuration lives — the dials and switches that affect everyone using the platform, regardless of which domain or perimeter they're in.

Settings are grouped into the following categories:

* [**General settings**](/ciso-assistant/product-docs/configuration/settings/general.md) — display preferences, default language, currency and daily rate, AI/LLM provider configuration, retention defaults, and a handful of behavioural toggles (self-validation, MFA enforcement, external-link warnings).
* [**Feature flags**](/ciso-assistant/product-docs/configuration/settings/feature-flags.md) — toggles that turn whole product areas on or off. Use these to tailor the UI to what your team actually needs and to keep advanced or experimental capabilities out of sight until you want them.
* [**Vulnerability SLA policy**](/ciso-assistant/product-docs/configuration/settings/vulnerability-sla.md) — the remediation deadlines (in days) that apply to vulnerabilities by severity, and the anchor date used to compute the clock.
* [**Security intelligence feeds**](/ciso-assistant/product-docs/configuration/settings/sec-intel-feeds.md) — switches for the optional external feeds (KEV, EPSS, NVD enrichment) and the network timeout the platform uses when reaching them.
* [**Branding**](/ciso-assistant/product-docs/configuration/settings/branding.md) *(PRO)* — replace the default logo, favicon, and client name with your organisation's identity.
* [**Custom templates**](/ciso-assistant/product-docs/configuration/settings/custom-templates.md) *(PRO)* — override the subject and body of system emails, and the `.docx` templates used for document exports.

## Permissions

Editing settings requires the `change_globalsettings` permission. In practice, this means a Domain Manager on the global domain or an equivalent custom role.

## Scope

Settings on this page are **global** — they apply to the whole instance. Domain-level overrides aren't available at this layer; if you need per-domain behaviour, look at the relevant domain or perimeter's own settings.

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## 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/product-docs/configuration/settings.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.
