    Setup tasks Description
    Verify that you have assigned the required ServiceNow AI Platform roles for your instance. The following roles are required for installation, configuration, and verification of expected results:
    • The System Administrator (admin) installs the app and assigns the Security Incident Administrator (sn_si.admin) role.
    • The Security Incident Administrator (sn_si.admin) oversees the configuration and verifies the expected results. This role also has access to the Security Operations module.
    Obtain the Shodan API key. Create an account and obtain the API key from the Shodan website: Shodan website.
    Verify that the ServiceNow core applications that are required to support the integration are installed and activated before you install the application for the integration.

    For the Madrid release and later family releases, the Security Incident Response Dependency plugin (com.snc.si_dep) is required. This plugin automatically installs all the dependencies that are required to support the Security Incident Response product. Install and activate this plugin before you install and activate the other Security Operations applications required by the integration.

    Verify that the following Security Operations applications are installed and activated from the ServiceNow Store. If not installed, install and activate one application at a time in the following order to ensure a smooth installation.

    1. Security Incident Response
    2. Security Integration Framework
    3. Security Support Common
    4. Security Support Orchestration
