Quickstart — Configure Domain → SIEM

The data sent to the SIEM comes from a plugin installed on each WordPress site, which collects and transmits security information to the platform.

After signing in to Vulnity, you will land directly on the SIEM dashboard. From there, in Domain Management, you will find the button that starts the linking process between your WordPress site and Vulnity.

Domain Management Interface

When you click “Add domain”, the required fields appear:

  • Full WordPress URL: enter the full address of the site you want to link.
  • Site name: the name used to identify the domain inside Vulnity. You can use the domain itself, for example example.com, or a shorter name such as example.

You will also see “Client” and “Tags” fields. These are optional and can help organize domains inside the panel.

This guide uses “localhost” as an example domain, which is useful for local testing of the linking process.

Add Domain Form

After completing the fields and clicking “Next”, Vulnity shows instructions for downloading the plugin from the WordPress Store.
