Navigation menus and icons
The NetSPI Platform’s landing page invites you to launch into the modules and dig into the findings, assets, and data views that help you manage your organization’s security.
The NetSPI Platform's simple navigation is broken into three sections:
#
1. Left navigation
The left navigation pane is where you choose the security module: PTaaS, EASM, BAS, and CAASM.
Hover over a navigation menu item to view and select secondary menu options specific to the product.
For details on all the modules and their functionality, see: PTaaS, EASM, and BAS.
#

The sections below provide details about the top-right navigation functions.
#
Global search
The global search button 
can be opened two ways: select
the Global Search button or type the keyboard shortcut that displays within the button text (e.g., ctrl + /).
Searches actively begin once you start typing to match the characters entered and display the location/category to the right of each returned.
#
Organization selector
If you have more than one organization on the NetSPI Platform (subsidiaries, etc.), you can view data for each organization's data by selecting it from the Organization drop-down list.
The Organization selector also supports freeform text entry so you can search for a specific organization by typing its name in the drop-down list field.
#
Attack Surface Scanning
The Attack Surface Scanning icon is a quick status indicator of your scanning status for the EASM module. Selecting the icon displays the time since your last attack surface scan, and it shows if the workflows (scans) are currently running so you have an idea of what is happening behind the scenes. See the EASM section for more information on the External Attack Surface Management module.
#

Notifications

box to view general notifications. A total count of unread notifications displays along with a link to mark all of the
notifications as read. Selecting an individual notification brings the subject of that notification into focus.
