# Get Started

The Radiant Knowledge Base contains in-depth documentation, best practices, and workflows across the entire platform. This section is organized to get you productive as quickly as possible - follow the Admin Quickstart if you are responsible for platform setup, or jump straight to the User Quickstart if your environment is already configured and you are ready to triage.

If you need help at any point, see [Get Help](https://help.radiantsecurity.ai/welcome-to-radiant/support/get-help).

### What is Radiant?

Radiant is an AI-powered SOC platform that automates alert triage, investigation, and response across your entire security stack. It ingests alerts from every connected source, runs a structured triage pipeline against each one, and delivers a verdict with full investigation context attached - so your analysts spend time on confirmed threats, not alert queues. For a full description of the platform and how it works, see [Platform Overview](https://help.radiantsecurity.ai/welcome-to-radiant/platform-overview).

### Who is this guide for?

This guide is for two audiences:

* **Platform admins** - responsible for connecting data sources, configuring SSO and user access, and preparing the environment before analysts begin work.
* **Security analysts** - responsible for reviewing triage results, accepting or overriding verdicts, escalating alerts to cases, and executing response actions.

Each quickstart below is scoped to one audience. Start with the one that matches your role.
