# Zero-X Cloud Security Platform - Onboarding Documentation

## Overview

The Zero-X Cloud Security Platform onboarding flow is designed to guide new users through the initial setup process, ensuring they have a smooth introduction to the platform's capabilities. The onboarding process consists of three main **Steps: Profile Setup, Data Source Connection, and Security Scan execution**.

The onboarding flow serves as a structured, guided introduction to the Zero-X Cloud Security Platform, addressing the complexities of cloud security setup for new users. It ensures that users are not overwhelmed by the platform's extensive features and instead experience a progressive, step-by-step setup that builds their Security Findings incrementally.

#### 1. Account Creation

Users create an account in two quick steps:

Enter basic details (name, company, email, password)

Verify email with a one-time code
The process is fast, simple, and designed for secure onboarding.
