Understanding your dashboard

Created by Kurt Chrisford, Modified on Fri, 25 Sep at 3:02 PM by Kurt Chrisford

Your dashboard is where you see how exposed you are from the outside and what to fix next. Here's what each part shows, from top to bottom.

Your posture score

The gauge at the top shows your posture score as a letter, from A (Excellent) to F (Critical). Under it, a one-line verdict explains it in plain words. If something is holding your posture score down, the verdict names it.

While your first scans are running, your posture score is marked as provisional and keeps updating on its own.

Select Fix top finding to go straight to the finding that will do the most for your posture score. To see how it's worked out, open Scoring methodology in the sidebar.

Security domains

Next to your posture score, the Security domains list rates the six areas we check:

  • Brand protection
  • Cloud exposure
  • DNS security
  • Email authentication
  • Network exposure
  • Website security

Each has its own letter and a bar. A domain we have nothing to assess on shows Not scored. If one domain is holding your posture score down, it's tagged Caps your grade. That's usually the best place to start.

Your attack surface

This map shows what anyone on the internet can work out about you without touching your systems: your domains, and the providers that run them for email, DNS, hosting and other online services. Select Changes this month to see what's new. The map is rebuilt overnight, so it appears the day after you add your first domain.

Improve your posture score

A short checklist of setup steps that lift your posture score, such as adding DMARC reporting. Tick them off as you go.

Today's focus

The findings most worth your time today, in priority order. Select View all findings for the full list. When there's nothing urgent, you'll see All clear for today.

Services waiting for a check-in

This appears only when we've detected services, such as a hosting or email provider, that you haven't confirmed yet. Select Review services to confirm them.

Your security at a glance

For your first 30 days, this section shows how you compare, quick wins, your timeline and your strengths. You can dismiss it at any time.

Key numbers

  • Critical open: open critical findings, and the change over the last 7 days
  • Domains expiring within 30 days: domain registrations due for renewal (not certificates)
  • Recent changes (24h): changes we've detected in the last day
  • Scans this week: how many scans have run

Trends

Once you have some history, two charts show your progress: Open findings over time, over 30 or 90 days, and Findings by priority.

Security journey

The strip at the bottom shows where you are across four phases: Foundation, Harden, Monitor and Advanced. Each phase builds on the one before.
