Step 1 - Let's get started

You’re in. Nucleus is ready to help you centralize, enrich, and act on your vulnerability data. Let’s get started.

Log in to your console

  • Click the link in your welcome email to access the system

  • Set up MFA if desired


First action: Connect a scanner or asset management system.

Use our prebuilt Connectors or file-based FlexConnect to ingest scan data from over 150 tools, such as:

This powers deduplication, threat enrichment, and automation.

Asset Management: What You will See After Connecting

Every integration to Nucleus is an asset connector as well as a vulnerability connector. Once your scans are ingested, Nucleus will automatically:

  • Deduplicate and normalize your assets across tools

  • Enrich asset records with all of the relevant metadata from upstream scanning tools

  • Groups systems by business unit, IP range, or tags (using the Nucleus automation framework)

  • Link vulnerabilities and deduplicate across duplicate assets from separate upstream systems

  • Highlights gaps—like unmanaged assets or scan coverage blind spots

 

This gives you the context to prioritize by ownership, exposure, and criticality, not just CVSS.


You’ll see this as Step 1 in your in-app checklist (Project Admin > Configuration Guide) once you log in. All you need is API access. No engineering help required.
