IT & SecOps: one governed front door to every console & runbook

Eliminate “where is that link?” pings. Centralize identity, device, endpoint, network, and SIEM dashboards with clean access and clear owners.

TL;DR: Domain workspaces → tags for system, env, severity, asset, owner, review, status → import canonical consoles/dashboards/runbooks → publish an internal portal → enforce SSO/SAML & audit.

Common pain points

  • Admin consoles and inventories scattered across bookmarks and wikis.
  • Runbooks hidden in docs; steps drift and go stale.
  • On-call can’t find the right SIEM/EDR dashboards fast.
  • Privileged links accidentally overshared in chat/docs.

How Linkinize helps

  • Console index for Identity, Device/MDM, EDR, Network, SIEM/Monitoring.
  • Runbook shelf with owners, status, and review cadence.
  • Internal portals (read-only) for on-call, SOC, and IT helpdesk.
  • SSO/SAML + audit to scope access and prove control.

How it works (5 steps)

  1. Create domain workspaces (Identity, Device/MDM, EDR, Network, SIEM/Monitoring, IR).
  2. Define tags (see template): system:* , env:dev|staging|prod, severity:sev-1|sev-2|sev-3, asset:runbook|dashboard|inventory|policy|training|change|backup, owner:it|secops|platform|network, review:monthly|quarterly|annual, status:approved|draft|deprecated|outdated.
  3. Import canonical links to consoles, inventories, EDR/SIEM dashboards, VPN/Zero Trust, secrets vaults, phishing training, backup/DR docs.
  4. Publish an internal portal (Public Page) for non-sensitive references; keep privileged links in private workspaces.
  5. Enforce SSO/SAML, assign owners, and run a monthly audit of access and stale links.

Common questions & objections

“We already have bookmarks in a wiki.”
Keep the wiki—Linkinize adds scoped search, SSO/SAML, audit trails, owners, and review cadences so mission-critical links don’t drift or leak.
“Will this expose privileged consoles?”
No—publish only non-sensitive references on an internal Public Page. Keep privileged links in private workspaces with viewer/editor roles.
“Another tool to maintain?”
You save canonical URLs; content and permissions stay in the source systems. Public Pages auto-update as links change.
“How does this help on-call?”
One link routes on-call to the right dashboards, inventories, and runbooks—tagged by severity and environment for fast triage.

Faster resolution, safer access

IT & SecOps teams use Linkinize to reduce time-to-dashboard, standardize runbooks, and keep privileged access tightly scoped.

  • • One hub for consoles, inventories, dashboards & runbooks
  • • Internal portals for on-call/SOC (read-only)
  • • SSO/SAML, roles, and audit logging
  • • Works with Okta/AAD/Google Admin, Jamf/Intune, EDR & SIEMs

Frequently Asked Questions

Do we store credentials or logs in Linkinize?
No—Linkinize stores links and metadata only. Credentials/logs remain in your IdP, vaults, and SIEM with native permissions.
Can we create separate portals for on-call vs. IT helpdesk?
Yes—publish targeted internal Public Pages or use separate workspaces scoped to each function.
How do we handle environment-specific links?
Tag by env:dev|staging|prod and include severity tags to guide responders to the right dashboards quickly.
