1.1. Introduction

ASGARD Management Center is our central management platform for THOR scans, Aurora for real time protection of your endpoints, custom playbooks, or even Thunderstorm. It can manage distributed THOR scans on thousands of systems, collecting and forwarding the scan results to our ASGARD Analysis Cockpit or your own SIEM.

The ASGARD Management Center can control and execute complex response tasks if needed, opening live remote command prompts on your endpoints, or executing other actions incident response specialists will find useful. Additionally, it provides an easy to use interface for creating custom multi-step response playbooks, which can execute any command on your endpoints and collect the respective outputs.

The ASGARD Management Center comes bundled with Debian on a custom ISO file and can be deployed in many different ways.

This document describes all functions and steps for the setup and operation of the ASGARD Management Center. It will describe how to add systems for scanning and performing individual or group scanning with separate parameters.
