Cernexa docs & help
Everything you need to discover the software your endpoints install, understand its risk with the Crucible engine, and enforce policy across your fleet — from first sign-up to programmatic gating in CI.
- What is Cernexa?
Endpoint security for the agentic era — discover, score, and govern everything your endpoints install.
- Create your account & organization
Sign up, create your first organization, and land in a ready-to-use console.
- Install the agent & enroll endpoints
Run the one-line installer to enroll a device, report its install surface, and start scoring.
- Reading the dashboard
Your fleet's install surface and risk posture at a glance — KPIs, trends, and what needs attention.
- Supply Chain Gateway
Block risky software before it reaches a machine — agentless checks for CI, an inline registry proxy, and a guard command.
- Connect VirusTotal
Add your own VirusTotal API key to enrich Crucible verdicts with file and domain reputation.
- API keys & programmatic access
Create per-organization API keys for the Supply Chain Gateway and other programmatic access.
- Discovery & the Crucible score
The full inventory of installed software, and how Crucible turns each artifact into an explainable 0–100 risk score.
- Exposure & vulnerabilities
Fleet-wide vulnerability posture — which installed software carries known CVEs, what's actively exploited, and how many endpoints are affected.
- Preventive policies
Auto-approve, block, or flag installs by risk level, software type, or publisher.
- Governance & enforcement posture
Persistent allow/block decisions, your default posture, and automatic protections that follow software across versions and endpoints.
- Containment & ringfencing
Declare the capability budget each piece of non-binary software is allowed — network, filesystem, shell, secrets — and catch anything beyond it.
- Endpoints — modes, lifecycle & deprovisioning
Manage the devices running the Cernexa agent — their state, enforcement mode, discovered software, and lifecycle.
- Software Catalog
Maintain a vetted list of internally-approved software your teams can install safely.
