On Enterprise plans, private ticket groups allow admins to designate a group of agents who can see tickets with otherwise restricted access. When a ticket is assigned to a private group, only agents who are members of that group can see the contents of the ticket, unless the agent is the requester or explicitly added as a CC or follower. For more details, see About private groups.
