Every platform page has the same frame: the **sidebar** on the left, and a header row at the top with the
**breadcrumb** on the left and three menus on the right. Many pages also split their content into
**in-page tabs** under the page title.

## Before You Start

No package or role is needed. The sidebar shows the same modules to every user, including modules that
your organization's package does not include; those open to a lock screen. The profile menu has one more
item for admins. See [What you can access](/guide/basics/packages-and-roles/).

## Where to Find It

On every page after you sign in, for example the Global Dashboard:
**Sidebar:** **GLOBAL DASHBOARD** · https://platform.deepinfo.com/app/global-dashboard

## The Sidebar

The sidebar lists everything you can open, from top to bottom:

1. The Deepinfo logo and **GLOBAL DASHBOARD**. Both open the Global Dashboard.
2. The module groups, each under a coloured heading. The headings are labels, not links.
3. **REPORTS**, **NOTIFICATION CENTER** and **SETTINGS**.

| Group heading | Colour | Items |
|---|---|---|
| **EXTERNAL ATTACK SURFACE MANAGEMENT** | Blue | **EASM DASHBOARD** · **ASSETS** (**INVENTORY**, **DISCOVERY**) · **ISSUES** · **TECHNOLOGIES** · **VULNERABILITIES** |
| **CYBER THREAT INTELLIGENCE** | Red | **CTI DASHBOARD** · **COMPROMISED EMPLOYEE DATA** · **COMPROMISED CLIENT CREDENTIALS** · **COMPROMISED PAYMENT CREDENTIALS** · **CYBER SECURITY NEWS** · **DARK WEB SEARCH** |
| **BRAND RISK PROTECTION** | Orange | **FRAUDULENT DOMAINS** |
| **DEEP SEARCH & INSIGHTS** | Green | **DOMAIN INTELLIGENCE** · **DOMAIN SEARCH** · **VULNERABILITY INTELLIGENCE** · **VULNERABILITY SEARCH** · **INSTANT LOOKUP** · **FEEDS** |
| No heading | None | **REPORTS** (**REPORTS**, **SCHEDULED REPORTS**) · **NOTIFICATION CENTER** · **SETTINGS** |

**ASSETS** and **REPORTS** have a chevron. Select one to show the items in brackets below it.

The guide has a section for each area: the [Global Dashboard](/guide/global-dashboard/),
[External Attack Surface Management (EASM)](/guide/easm/), [Cyber Threat Intelligence (CTI)](/guide/cti/),
[Brand Risk Protection (BRP)](/guide/brp/), [Deep Search & Insights (DSI)](/guide/dsi/),
[Reports](/guide/reports/), [Notification Center](/guide/notifications/) and [Settings](/guide/settings/).

### Collapse the Sidebar

The button to the left of the breadcrumb collapses the sidebar into a narrow column of icons
(**Collapse sidebar**), and opens it again (**Expand sidebar**).

When the sidebar is collapsed, the groups keep their short names **EASM**, **CTI**, **BRP** and **DSI**.
Hover over an icon to see the item's name, for example **ASSETS**.

## The Breadcrumb

The breadcrumb at the top left shows where you are. It starts with the short name of the area, for
example:

- **DEEPINFO / GLOBAL DASHBOARD**
- **EASM / ISSUES / ISSUE LIST**
- **DSI / DOMAIN SEARCH**
- **SETTINGS / USER SETTINGS / ACCOUNT DETAILS**

Some parts of the breadcrumb are links. For example, **ISSUES** in **EASM / ISSUES / ISSUE LIST** opens
the **OVERVIEW** tab of Issues.

## In-Page Tabs

Many pages have tabs under the page title. Each tab has its own address, so you can bookmark or share
it. Selecting the item in the sidebar opens the list tab; **OVERVIEW** holds the summary cards.

| Sidebar item | In-page tabs |
|---|---|
| **INVENTORY** | **OVERVIEW** · **ASSETS LIST** · **INSIGHTS** |
| **DISCOVERY** | **OVERVIEW** · **DISCOVERED ASSETS** · **SETTINGS** |
| **ISSUES** | **OVERVIEW** · **ISSUE LIST** · **INSIGHTS** |
| **TECHNOLOGIES** | **OVERVIEW** · **TECHNOLOGIES LIST** · **INSIGHTS** |
| **VULNERABILITIES** | **OVERVIEW** · **VULNERABILITIES LIST** · **INSIGHTS** |
| **COMPROMISED EMPLOYEE DATA** | **OVERVIEW** · **COMPROMISED EMPLOYEES** · **EXPOSED CREDENTIALS** |
| **FRAUDULENT DOMAINS** | **OVERVIEW** · **FRAUDULENT DOMAINS** · **SETTINGS** |

### How This Guide Gives Directions

Each page in this guide says where to find a screen in one line: **Sidebar:** is the path in the
sidebar, and **Tab:** is the in-page tab, followed by the page's address. For example:

**Sidebar:** **EXTERNAL ATTACK SURFACE MANAGEMENT** › **ISSUES** · **Tab:** **ISSUE LIST** ·
https://platform.deepinfo.com/app/easm/issues

## The + Menu

The blue **+** button at the top right is a shortcut for adding things.

| Group | Item | Opens |
|---|---|---|
| **ASSETS** | **ADD ASSETS / MANUALLY** | The EASM page where you type assets in. See [Add assets](/guide/easm/add-assets/) |
| **ASSETS** | **ADD ASSETS / UPLOAD FILE** | The EASM page where you upload a file of assets. See [Add assets](/guide/easm/add-assets/) |
| **ORGANIZATION** | **ADD NEW MEMBER** | **SETTINGS** › **ORGANIZATION SETTINGS** › **Members**, where admins invite people. Members who are not admins land on **Account Details** instead |

![The + menu open, with its ASSETS and ORGANIZATION items.](/img/guide/basics/navigation-04.png)

## The Cybersecurity News Menu

The newspaper icon next to **+** opens **Cybersecurity News**, a short list of recent articles under the
tab **All**, which shows how many there are:

- **TODAY**: articles published within about the last day.
- **LAST 7 DAYS**: up to five articles from the past week.

Each entry shows the title and how long ago it was published, such as **12 HOURS AGO**. Select one to open
the article. **Go to Cybersecurity News** at the bottom opens the full news list, the same page as
**CYBER SECURITY NEWS** in the sidebar. See [Cyber security news](/guide/cti/cybersecurity-news/).

## The Profile Menu

The button at the far right shows your **organization's** logo, or its initials when it has no logo,
with a chevron. It is not your own photo. It opens this menu:

| Item | What it does |
|---|---|
| **USER SETTINGS** | Opens your **Account Details** in Settings |
| **COMPANY SETTINGS** | Opens the organization's **Settings** page. Admins only |
| **DOCUMENTATION** | Opens this documentation site in a new tab |
| **SUPPORT** | Opens an e-mail to [support@deepinfo.com](mailto:support@deepinfo.com) |
| **SIGN OUT** | Signs you out and returns to the sign-in page |

The items sit under the headings **ACCOUNT** (**USER SETTINGS** and **COMPANY SETTINGS**) and
**ORGANIZATION** (the rest).

## Good to Know

- **No global search.** Search inside each list instead. See
  [Search, filter and export lists](/guide/basics/lists-filters-and-exports/).
- **One organization per account.** Your account belongs to exactly one organization, so there is no
  organization switcher.
- **No language setting.** The platform is in English.
- **Page links are shareable.** Platform addresses work as bookmarks and in messages to colleagues. A
  signed-out colleague is asked to sign in first and then lands on the page.
- **Some links open a new browser tab,** for example the figure cards on the Global Dashboard and
  **OPEN IN NEW TAB** in a record's side panel.
- **Narrow windows.** On a small screen, collapse the sidebar to give the page more room.
- **Page not found.** A platform address that does not exist shows **PAGE NOT FOUND** in the breadcrumb
  and a message that the page could not be found. **GO BACK TO DASHBOARD** there opens the EASM
  dashboard. To reach the Global Dashboard, select **GLOBAL DASHBOARD** in the sidebar.
