Quick Start

Connect PocketSOC securely

Choose how you want to use PocketSOC. Teams connect through the portal; individuals connect directly from the app.

Create API credentials

Prefer per-user clients so actions stay attributable and easy to revoke.

Enable push notifications

Optional but recommended for fast triage.

  • CrowdStrike: copy your PocketSOC webhook URL from Portal Settings; configure Falcon notification forwarding
  • Defender for Endpoint: forward alerts via Sentinel Analytics rule or a Logic App to your PocketSOC webhook URL
  • Defender for Cloud: set up an Azure Logic App + Workflow Automation to forward alerts. See setup guide
  • AWS GuardDuty: create an EventBridge rule to forward findings. See setup guide

Use Demo Mode anytime

Evaluate without touching a real tenant.

  • Toggle Demo Mode on the Sign In screen
