Copy page

Dashboard summarizes the security posture of the scanned AWS environments in the selected scan.

Risk Pane (AWS Dashboard)

This Risk Pane summarizes key risk metrics from the scan, including the overall Risk and Exposure Scores, Tier 0 Identities, Dangerous Paths, Shadow Admins, and severity levels (Critical to Info). It breaks down risks by MITRE ATT&CK Tactics (e.g., Persistence, Privilege Escalation, Initial Access), Tags (e.g., Identity Governance, Account Security, Access Management), Impacts (e.g., Privilege Escalation via Policy Manipulation, Shadow Admin via Dangerous Permissions, Credential Exposure), and AWS Entity Types (e.g., AWSIAMUser, AWSIAMRole, AWSIAMGroup, AWSIAMPolicy, AWSIAMAccount, AWSOrganization, AWSOrganizationalUnit, AWSIdentityCenter, AWSPermissionSet, AWSSSOUser, AWSSSOGroup). This layout helps quickly identify high-risk areas and prioritize remediation actions within AWS environments.

The Tier 0 Identities card is shown when the scan policy enables the Tier0 Analysis module for AWS. The Tier Analysis Statistics and Top Choke Points sections below the entity cards are described on the Dashboard page.
