Navigate to the project you wish to create a security group inside. From inside the project you can select "Security groups" from the sidebar.

When you navigate to the security groups page, click "Create security group". A slideover will open containing a form with the following fields to complete.

  • Security group ID - this is the name of your security group, it must be unique
  • Data center - this is the data center that your security group will be deployed to
  • Description - this is an optional description of your security group

Once you are happy, click "Create security group" and your security group will be deployed to the data center you selected.

This will create a security group with no rules applied. You will need to add rules to your security group to allow traffic to your virtual machines.
