Step1: Log in to your AWS account and ensure that you are in the correct region, or switch to the required region. This is necessary to onboard your AWS account to Saner CNAPP.
Step2: In Saner, click on “Cloud Deployment”
Step3: Choose “AWS CloudFormation (Automatic)” and click the “Automatic Onboarding” button, as shown in the image below alongwith the Regions(drop-downlist)
If you do not choose any region, then the system considers all the regions automatically for scanning.

Step4: The control redirects to the AWS account CloudFormation stack, as shown in the image below.

Step5: Acknowledge the creation of the required resources by selecting the checkbox, and if necessary, append a name to the “Stack Name” field (ensure it is unique), as shown in the image above.
Make sure that you don’t modify any other field.
Step6: Click the “Create Stack” button to initiate the creation of the required resources in your AWS account, as shown in the image below.

Step7: Once the CloudFormation stack task is completed, all the required resources, such as policies, roles, and Lambda functions, will be created in your AWS account, as shown in the image below.

Now that you have now completed the AWS Credentials Onboarding, the Scan Configuration page opens automatically for you to make the necessary settings to initiate the scan. You have an option to:
- Update one or more regions by selecting from the drop-down list. Note that if you do not choose any region, then the system considers all the regions automatically for scanning.
- Validate credentials(Test Credentials button) to prevent scan failures due to authentication issues
- Setup the Scan Schedule run as needed
- Start the scan or Pause the scan and then resume it from the point where it was paused
