Best place to start is to make use of the Security Center in your instance.

Hi @shilpakarma ,

ServiceNow Security Center is an out-of-the-box application that strengthens instance security through automated hardening, security scanning, and monitoring of over 60–80+ key performance indicators (KPIs). It provides a centralized dashboard for administrators to identify, analyze, and mitigate misconfigurations or suspicious behaviors.

Key Components :

Security Hardening: Evaluates your instance against ServiceNow-recommended security configurations to calculate a compliance score.
Security Center: Identifies security misconfigurations and insecure behaviors in your instance
Security Metrics: Provides dashboards to monitor over 80+ Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) to identify potential threats or vulnerabilities.

Best Practice: Implements recommended security configurations, such as managing ACLs and blocking unauthorized access, to improve overall security posture

Check this demo for navigation and explore in your instance.
