Add Websites

You need to add websites to SOCaaP Web Protection to enable protection and to use the content delivery network (CDN).

The number of sites you can add depends on your license.

Once added, you can configure threat monitoring and CDN settings for each site.

Add a new domain

The dashboard shows all protected Cas a tile. Each tile provides an at-a-glance summary of any problems on the site.

Click the 'Add New Site' tile, or the 'Add Site' button at top-right.

The 'Add Websites' wizard starts:

The wizard has three steps:

Step 1 - Register your website

Step 2 - Select License

Step 3 - Site Provisioning in Progress

Step 1 - Register your website

Enter the domain name of the website you want to register. Do not include 'www' at the start.

Click 'Continue Setup' to move to the next step.

Step 2 - Select License

Next, choose the type of license you want to activate on the site.

SOCaaP Web Protection features vary according to license type.

The drop-down menu lets you select from all licenses you have purchased.

Choose the type of license you wish to associate with the domain:

Click 'Finish' to proceed

Step 3 - Finalization

The final stage is for SOCaaP Web Protection to provision your site:

You will see the following confirmation message when registration is complete:

Next up is to enable SOCaaP Web protection on the site

Click 'Get Started' to open the 'Overview' page for the website

The overview page lets you configure malware and vulnerability scans, firewall rules, CDN settings, and more

This is covered in more detail in the Website Overview section.

Important Note:

SOCaaP Web Protection generates a CNAME DNS record for the website you just enrolled

You need to add this record to the DNS entry for your domain to route site traffic through the CDN

To view the CNAME record:

Select a website in the drop-down at top-left of the dashboard

Select the 'DNS' tab (or click the hamburger button and select 'DNS')

The CNAME DNS record is shown under 'DNS'

Your web host may be able to help you add the CNAME. Guidance is also available at https://support.google.com/a/topic/1615038?hl=en.

Tip: You can skip this step for now and add the CNAME to DNS later. See DNS Configuration for help with this.

Repeat the process to add more websites.

Remove Websites

You can remove any site that you no longer want to protect with SOCaaP Web Protection.

Select the website from the drop-down at top-left of the dashboard

Click the 'Overview' tab (or click the hamburger button and select ''Overview')

Click 'Remove Site' at the bottom-left of the interface:

A warning message is shown.

Enter the URL of the site you want to delete. For example, my-website.com

Click 'Remove Site'.

Note:

Removing a website will delete all its data from SOCaaP Web Protection. The site's traffic will no longer be routed through the CDN

You should manually revert the name servers in the site's DNS settings to their default servers

The site license will become available for use on a different website
