Follow this step-by-step walkthrough to get productive with Snapsec in under 30 minutes.

Step 1: Log In and Set Up Your Workspace (5 Minutes)

  1. Open your Snapsec console URL.
  2. Log in with your corporate SSO credentials or initial administrator account.
  3. Review your Company Profile under Administration > Company Profile.
  4. Create your first Business Unit (e.g., Core Banking, Payment Gateway, Customer Portal) to organize your assets.

Step 2: Discover External Assets via ASM (10 Minutes)

  1. Navigate to Asset & Exposure Management > Attack Surface Management.
  2. Click New Scan or Add Root Domain.
  3. Input your primary organization domains (e.g., yourcompany.com).
  4. Snapsec ASM immediately initiates passive and active reconnaissance:
    • Subdomain enumeration
    • DNS record resolution
    • SSL/TLS certificate transparency analysis
    • Open port and service fingerprinting
  5. Inspect the discovered assets in the Asset Catalog.

Step 3: Run Your First Vulnerability Scan (10 Minutes)

  1. Navigate to Vulnerability Scanning > Projects & Scan Targets.
  2. Click Create Project and specify your target scope (e.g., Staging Web Application).
  3. Select an assessment profile:
    • Quick Surface Scan: Port discovery and service banner analysis.
    • Web Application Scan: OWASP Top 10 vulnerabilities, API misconfigurations, and authentication weaknesses.
  4. Click Start Scan and monitor real-time execution in the Scan Results view.

Step 4: Triage Findings & Enforce SLAs (5 Minutes)

  1. Navigate to Vulnerability Scanning > Finding Management.
  2. Filter findings by TrueRisk™ Score (Critical, High, Medium, Low).
  3. Click any finding to inspect:
    • Technical description and CVE references.
    • Detailed request/response evidence and reproduction steps.
    • Remediation advisory tailored to your framework.
  4. Assign the finding to a team owner and trigger a Jira ticket directly from the action bar.
  5. Notice how Snapsec automatically calculates the SLA deadline based on severity.
