  1. Configure A Site
  2. Deploy A Site

Overview

A site is a logical definition of a cloud account or an on-prem location. A site needs to be configured and deployed before you can deploy an analyzer in an environment. Once you configure a site in the RansomStop Admin Portal, you will need to deploy a CloudFormation template to define IAM groups and policies required to deploy an analyzer in that environment.

Steps

Configure A Site

Deploy A Site

Currently, a site needs to be added and saved before you can do a deployment. There are some server side actions that need to happen, and those aren’t triggered until you click Save on a new site.

If you need to send the CloudFormation template to another person to install (or for approval), you can click View Template and save the file locally. If you have cloud admin permissions, you can deploy the CloudFormation template directly from the RansomStop Admin Portal.

  1. Deploy Template. Select your Site and click Edit

If the edit icon is green, the Site has already been deployed. If it is orange, it has not yet been deployed.

  1. Expand the Deployment Section and click Deploy Template

  1. Create Stack. Click Next.

  1. Stack Details. Click Next.

  1. Stack Options. Click Acknowledge and Click Next.

  1. Stack Create

  1. Acknowledge
  2. Go to the IAM console page. Click User Groups.

  1. Select the RansomStopDeploymentAdmins group.
  2. Add any users who should have permissions to deploy analyzers.

  1. Return to the RansomStop Admin Portal, site edit dialog
  2. Click the Policy Deployed slider and click Save
