# Veza Administration

The Veza administration section provides tools for securing your tenant, managing users, configuring single sign-on (SSO), and monitoring system events.\
Because Veza analyzes and stores sensitive information about your organization's identities, permissions, and resources, you should properly secure your Veza tenant before adding integrations and users.

> Options for managing cloud provider and data source integrations are available from the [Integrations](/4yItIzMvkpAvMVFAamTf/integrations/configuration.md) page.\
> Use the **Integrations** > **Veza Actions** page to set up external destinations for alerts and event notifications.

Before proceeding with any additional configuration:

1. [Secure your tenant](/4yItIzMvkpAvMVFAamTf/administration/administration/tenant-security.md) by configuring SSO, MFA, and local account policies.
2. Review Veza's [user management](/4yItIzMvkpAvMVFAamTf/administration/administration/users.md) options and role-based access controls.
3. Monitor Veza platform [events](/4yItIzMvkpAvMVFAamTf/administration/administration/events.md).

## Administrative Features

Click the **Administration** cog icon at the bottom of the navigation sidebar to configure global settings for the Veza platform:

* **Platform Events**: Review platform events, such as user logins, role changes, and changes to API keys.
* **User Management**: Create and manage [user accounts and roles](/4yItIzMvkpAvMVFAamTf/administration/administration/users.md).
* **Team Management**: Create [teams](/4yItIzMvkpAvMVFAamTf/administration/administration/users/teams.md) with limited scopes.
* **Sign-In Settings**: Set up and manage [SSO integration](/4yItIzMvkpAvMVFAamTf/administration/administration/sign-in-settings.md) and access policies.

## Integration Management

After securing your tenant and verifying all security configurations, you can begin adding integrations:

* Configure identity provider (IdP) connections.
* Set up cloud platform integrations for services like [AWS](/4yItIzMvkpAvMVFAamTf/integrations/integrations/aws.md), [Google Cloud](/4yItIzMvkpAvMVFAamTf/integrations/integrations/google.md), or [Microsoft Azure](/4yItIzMvkpAvMVFAamTf/integrations/integrations/azure.md)
* Establish [Insight Points](/4yItIzMvkpAvMVFAamTf/integrations/connectivity/insight-point.md) for internal resource discovery.
* Configure [Veza Actions](/4yItIzMvkpAvMVFAamTf/administration/administration/notifications.md) for external integration and automation.

New integrations can take some time to complete their initial scan. The **Integrations** page overview and integration details will show the synchronization status. See [Configuring Integrations](/4yItIzMvkpAvMVFAamTf/integrations/configuration.md) to learn about managing and monitoring Veza integrations.
