Name the Asset Group and provide company assets as domains, IP addresses, or a combination of domains and IP Addresses. A maximum of 700 domains can be added to the configuration. IP addresses need to be Public IPs only with a maximum input of 3000 entries and formatted using IP/CIDR notation. Please specify a network segment of /20 or smaller (e.g., /22, /23, /24). Both domains and IP addresses should be comma separated. Click Next.

  • To add an AWS Account, type the 12-digit AWS Account ID in the box listed below.

Once satisfied with the accounts, Click Next.

  • Enable brute force on subdomains to authorize NodeZero to search for well-known subdomains that may not surface through OSINT discovery.

Once satisfied with the configuration options, click Create Asset Group.
