This domain separation overview pertains to MITRE-ATT\&CK. Domain separation
allows you to separate data, processes, and administrative tasks into logical groupings called
domains. You can then control several aspects of this separation, including which users can see
and access data.

## Support level {#domain-separation-and-mitre-att-ck__section_m2w_ffk_ynb}

Support: Basic.

## How domain separation works with MITRE-ATT\&CK {#domain-separation-and-mitre-att-ck__section_ncc_t2k_ynb}

Follow these steps to achieve domain separation:

* Create a user with the required sn_ti.admin roles in the respective domain.
* Replicate the following for every domain:
  * [TAXII Collections](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/xGRYn1BZb3JFv4_e1saNNg#domain-separation-and-mitre-att-ck__section_svm_dry_y4b)  
    Note:  
    * Do not activate the collections in the global domain. Activate only the collections that are replicated and available in your domain.
    * Change the Run as field in the collections to the user with the sn_ti.admin role in the respective domain.
    {#domain-separation-and-mitre-att-ck__ul_zwf_gly_y4b}
  * Technique Coverage Definition
  * Technique Extraction Rule
  * Detection Rules -- MITRE ATT\&CK Mappings
  * Mitigation Coverage
    * Copy all the mitigation coverage definition records.
    * Copy the mitigate coverage calculator or create a new calculator for the respective domain.

  * Threat Group - Technique Heatmap Definitions

## Replicate TAXII Collection {#domain-separation-and-mitre-att-ck__section_svm_dry_y4b}

1. Navigate to Threat IntelligenceSourcesTAXII Profiles.
2. In the header bar, use the domain picker to select your domain.
3. Select the TAXII collection that is relevant to your organization (Enterprise ATT\&CK, Mobile ATT\&CK, or ICS ATT\&CK).
4. Right-click in the header bar and select Insert and Stay. The duplicate TAXII collection is created under the selected domain
5. Navigate back to the MITRE ATT\&CK TAXII Profile to view the duplicate TAXII collection.

The following illustration shows how to select the domain TOP/Initech, replicate the
TAXII collection in the domain, and verify the replicated TAXII collection.

* [Manage techniques](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/f5UTJ9u0heSamMptkLqrVA "Manage the techniques that have been imported from the MITRE TAXII collections. The techniques contain various ways attackers have developed to employ a given tactic. You can review and deactivate techniques that are not relevant to your organization.
