Getting Started

Get up and running with Zaun, Reagent for AI Adoption Security and Ember for Agentic Security Operations, in a few steps.

Prerequisites

Before you begin, make sure you have:

• An active Zaun account (book a call to get started)
• Admin access to the AI tools, identity providers, cloud, and endpoints you want to cover
• A point of contact to own the rollout

Step 1: Onboarding Call

Your rollout starts with an onboarding call. You'll meet your Forward Deployed Engineer (FDE), the dedicated engineer who owns your deployment alongside Reagent and Ember. During it, we'll:

1. Introduce your FDE and agree on who does what
2. Review your AI estate and current security posture
3. Decide where to start: Reagent (the AI your teams adopt), Ember (operations across your stack), or both
4. Plan the integration timeline
5. Set up access to Zaun

Step 2: Connect Your Sources

Zaun connects to the tools you already run. Reagent discovers your AI tools and agents; Ember pulls in identity, endpoint, cloud, and SaaS telemetry. A common first integration:

# Example: connect an AWS account
zaun integrations add aws \
  --account-id 123456789012 \
  --role-arn arn:aws:iam::123456789012:role/ZaunSecurityAudit \
  --regions us-east-1,us-west-2

See the Integrations guide for the full list of supported platforms.

Step 3: Review Initial Findings

Within days of connecting your sources, Zaun starts producing results. Reagent surfaces your AI estate, shadow AI, and vendor risk. Ember begins generating detections and findings, and your FDE tunes them to your environment so the early signal is real, not noise.

Step 4: Operationalize

Once it's tuned, you'll have:

• A dedicated FDE who knows your environment and keeps coverage sharp
• Documented runbooks for every detection
• Full investigation transparency: see what fired, what ran, what changed
• Coverage that adapts as new AI tools land and your environment evolves
