Getting Started with Interno

Prerequisites

Before you begin, ensure you have:

  • An active Zeron account with Interno access
  • Admin or Security Analyst role assigned to your profile
  • At least one security tool/integration ready to connect (e.g., Microsoft Defender, CrowdStrike, AWS)

    • Step 1: Log In to the Platform

    Navigation: Browser → Zeron Login Page
  • Navigate to your organization's Zeron login page.
  • Enter your credentials or use SSO to authenticate.
  • Upon successful login, you will be redirected to the Interno Dashboard.

    • Step 2: Understand the Navigation

    The Interno sidebar contains the following sections:

  • Click on the integration you want to connect (e.g., Microsoft Defender, AWS, CrowdStrike).
  • Follow the configuration wizard — provide API keys, credentials, or OAuth authorization as required.
  • Click Save to activate the integration.

    • > Tip: Start with your most critical security tool. Once connected, Interno begins pulling asset and risk data automatically.

    > Note: Each integration has specific requirements (API keys, permissions, endpoints). Refer to the integration-specific setup guides for detailed instructions.

  • The dashboard displays:
  • Security Posture Score — overall security health metric
  • Asset Overview — count and distribution of managed assets
  • Risk Summary — active risks by severity
  • Integration Health — status of connected tools
  • Recent Alerts — latest security events from integrations

    • Step 5: Explore Key Workflows
