Overview

InsightCloudSec provides multiple ways to install, test, and develop with the InsightCloudSec platform. A test drive install is ideal for small test cases and local workstation development. For details on a specific test instance and local development install refer to the individual test instance pages.

For testing with multiple accounts, InsightCloudSec provides two primary routes for deploying the platform:

• If your test will have no more than 5-6 accounts, the Linux Test Drive is recommended.
• If you are going to test more than 5-6 accounts, we recommend using the AWS Scalable Test Drive Deployment.

For solo local development, we recommend a smaller local install on MacOSX. Refer to the pages with instructions for deploying Docker and the InsightCloudSec platform on both Mac OSX .

Prerequisites & Recommendations

When deploying a test drive for InsightCloudSec, we recommend the following minimum VM specifications:

• VM: 4 CPU cores - 16GB memory - 40GB storage
• OS: Ubuntu 18.04 (Recommended), Amazon Linux, or RHEL/CentOS

The default Linux Test Drive Deployment creates a self-signed certificate for use with the InsightCloudSec platform. To use your own certificate you will need the cert and key files to place on the instance once InsightCloudSec is installed.

InsightCloudSec also requires some outbound network connectivity. Full details can be found on the Product Architecture page.

In addition, to test the requirements outlined above, InsightCloudSec provides a Preflight check script, located here:
