## Information

`Information Pane` can contain different badges to highlight important attributes.

| Badge            | Description                                                                                                        |
| ---------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ |
| **Shadow**       | Indicates that the object can compromise admin objects with at least one attack path.                              |
| **Sensitive**    | Indicates that the object is marked as not delegated or a member of the Protected Users group.                     |
| **Privileged**   | Indicates that the object is Privileged.                                                                           |
| **Admin**        | Indicates that the object is Admin.                                                                                |
| **Local Admin**  | Indicates that the object is a member (direct or nested) of a local administrators group in at least one computer. |
| **Service User** | Indicates that the object manages a service through the Service Principal Name attribute.                          |
| **Enabled**      | Indicates that the object is enabled.                                                                              |

`Information Pane` contains `Details`, `Groups`, `Sessions`, `SPNs`, `Local Memberships` and `GPOs` tabs respectively.

## Entity Header

The header of every entity detail page carries the object name, its `Risk` and `Exposure Point`, and the badges that classify it, such as `Privileged`, `Admin`, `Enabled`, `Tier0` and `Tier2`. An object that holds administrative privileges indirectly also carries a red `Shadow` badge.

Next to the `Information` title is a split button that opens the object in the [Graph](/forestall/visualize/visualize.md). For most objects it reads **Graph »**. For a shadow admin it reads **Admin Path »** instead and opens the path by which the object reaches its administrative privilege, with **Open in Graph** available from its dropdown for the ordinary graph view.

Details tab contains attributes below about user object.
