# AWS Dashboard

Dashboard provides a general and holistic view of security posture about scanned AWS environments based on different perspectives.

### **Risk Pane (AWS Dashboard)**

This Risk Pane summarizes key risk metrics from the scan, including the overall Risk and Exposure Scores, 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). This layout helps quickly identify high-risk areas and prioritize remediation actions within AWS environments.
