You need a WithSecure™ Business Account to access Elements Security Center ↗, the unified management platform for all WithSecure™ Elements products. There are two scenarios:
- When you purchase the product from a WithSecure partner, the partner typically creates a Business Account for the first administrator in your organization. You will have received an email from WithSecure with a temporary password and a link to log in.
- If your account has not yet been created but you have received a subscription key from your partner, go to elements.withsecure.com/self-register ↗ to create one.
Log in to Elements Security Center ↗ and connect your assets so that XM can build a picture of your digital perimeter. Onboard as many of the following as apply to your environment.
Devices
- Install Elements Agent on Windows devices for continuous vulnerability scanning. If devices already run Elements Agent for EPP, go to Environment > Devices > Computers and enable vulnerability scanning from there — no reinstall needed.
- Install a Scan node on a Windows Server or Linux server to scan devices where agent installation isn’t possible. For internet-facing devices, cloud scan nodes are available at no extra cost.
Cloud
- Add your Azure tenant under Environment > Cloud to bring in cloud infrastructure and identity data. Entra ID identity scanning starts automatically.
- Add your AWS accounts under Environment > Cloud to scan AWS infrastructure.
External attack surface
- Configure External Attack Surface (EASM) under Security Configurations > Scans to discover and monitor your internet-facing assets from the outside in.
Once assets are onboarded and scans have run, go to Home > Exposure to see your dashboard.
- Select the top item from the Highest impact recommendations list. Each recommendation shows the affected assets, identified findings, an attack path visualization, and the actions needed to fix it.
- Apply the fix using the actions in the left sidebar — Look for patches, Elevate to WithSecure for expert help, or Notes to log progress and ticket IDs.
- Update the recommendation Status as you work through it (Open, Acknowledged, Accepted Risk, False Positive, or Done) and monitor the dashboard as your exposure score improves.
