Last Update há 8 meses
This section provides detailed instructions for onboarding assets to the Athera SaaS Platform. The platform enables comprehensive vulnerability scanning to help identify and manage security risks across your assets.
Overview
SecOps Solution supports onboarding two types of assets:
Public Assets: Machines with public IPs accessible directly from the internet.
Private/Internal Assets: Machines with private IPs inside a network, accessed via a Jump Host.
Step-by-Step Onboarding Guide
1. Access the Assets Module
Log in to the SecOps platform.
Navigate to the Assets tab.
2. Add a New Asset
Click the Add Asset button to begin adding asset information.
3. Select Agentless Mode
At the top of the form, ensure the Agent Less option is selected.
4. Choose Vulnerability Scan Type
For vulnerability scanning, pick one of the two options:
Unauthenticated Scan: External scan without credentials, identifies open ports and exposed services only.
Authenticated Scan: In-depth OS and third-party application scan using credentials.
5. Fill in Asset Information
IP Address:
Enter the asset’s IP address. Use public IPs for internet-facing machines or private IPs for internal machines.
If onboarding a range of IPs, check the CIDR checkbox next to the IP field and enter the subnet in CIDR notation (e.g., 192.168.1.0/24).
Machine Name: Provide a descriptive name for your reference.
Groups: Assign the asset to one or multiple groups (e.g., Development, Production).
Criticality: Set the business impact or risk level on a scale (e.g., 1 to 5).
6. Provide Credentials (if required)
For authenticated scans or patch deployments:
Linux (SSH): Choose to whitelist SecOps public key on the asset, upload your SSH private key, or use password authentication.
Windows (WinRM): Enter username and password for remote WinRM access.
7. Select Jump Host (if applicable)
- If the IP address is private, select an existing Jump Host from the drop-down.
- If you have not configured a Jump Host yet, please add one first via the Assets > Add Jump Host option. For detailed instructions on configuring and setting up a Jump Host, please refer to the Jump Host Setup Guide.
8. Finalize Asset Addition
Click Add Asset to save the asset.
After clicking, a notification will pop up where the current onboarding status can be tracked.
If the onboarding is successful, a confirmation message will be displayed in the notification area.
If there is a connectivity or credential issue, the notification will show specific error details so the necessary corrections can be made and onboarding retried.
