Setup Users and Security
Configure Global Settings
Global Settings apply to all companies in your portal and auto-apply to any new ones created.
Reviewing each one is important to become familiar with what's available and set by default.
See the complete Global Settings documentation here: https://cybercns.atlassian.net/wiki/x/uICUgQ
Configure Global Scheduler
Navigate to Global > Settings > Scheduler to add, edit, and delete the settings.
Scan Scheduler

Below is a sample scan recommendation.

Daily Full Scan - All Companies (Includes Active Directory, Compliance, Firewall, and Network Scans) | Full Scan | Once Per Day | During business hours, we want assets to be online for scanning | Probe |
Daily ASM Scan - All Companies | Attack Surface Mapper | Once Per Day | After hours, any time | Non-Agent Scan |
Daily External Scan - All Companies | External Scan | Once Per Day | After hours, any time | Non-Agent Scan |
Weekly Compliance Scan - All Companies (Only needed if you are not using the Probe - Full Scan option) | Compliance | Once Per Week | During business hours, we want assets to be online for scanning | Lightweight or Probe Agent |
Patch Scheduler
This is where you configure automatic patching for Applications (third-party) and Operating Systems (OS). You can use one or both of the patching types. If you plan to use both Application and OS patching, you will build at least one schedule for each.
