# If you're a security analyst

This guide is for the analyst-level work of operating Seal day-to-day: triaging the vulnerabilities Seal discovers, creating Sealing Rules for the ones that need fixing, monitoring notifications, and producing reports for leadership.

## Where to start

* [How Seal discovers your packages](/discovering/how-seal-discovers-your-packages.md): what Seal sees and how that picture is built.
* [The Protection page](/discovering/protection-page.md) and [Package states](/discovering/package-states.md): the triage view and what each state means.
* [Sealing Rules](/using-platform/sealing-rules.md): how to create the rules that drive the Seal CLI to apply fixes.
* [Notification Center](/using-platform/notification-center.md): configuring which events are delivered and where, including personal email notifications.
* [Reports Manager](/using-platform/reports-manager.md): building reports for leadership.
* [Seal AI Agent](/using-platform/seal-ai-agent.md): the chatbot in the Seal UI, useful for answering "what's our exposure to X?" without leaving the conversation.
