Engineering Overview Dashboard

The Engineering Overview Dashboard helps you track security metrics across your organization in a way that matches how your teams actually work. When you manage many projects and applications across different departments or teams, it can be hard to get a clear picture of where things stand. This dashboard makes it easier by letting you group and view data by project, application, tags, or teams (groups).

By organizing data in a way that reflects your engineering structure, the dashboard supports better collaboration between AppSec and engineering teams. You can quickly see which areas need attention, how risks are trending, and where efforts are paying off.

Key Capabilities

The dashboard enables asset grouping by:

  • Project

  • Application

  • Project Tag

  • Application Tag

  • Group (Team or Department)

Each grouping helps you visualize security posture and identify focus areas across various levels of the organization.

You can switch between groupings using the View vulnerabilities by filter at the top of the dashboard.

Metrics and Data Display

The dashboard presents a tabular view with paginated rows, showing one row per asset (based on your selected grouping). Each row displays the following metrics:

  • Asset name: The name of the Project, Application, Tag and Group

  • Severity: Application risk.Displays only for Application assets

  • Total Open: Total number of open vulnerabilities

  • Open vulnerabilities: Count of open vulnerabilities, by severity: Critical, High, Medium

Severity Filtering

By default, the table displays metrics for Critical, High, and Medium severities. You can modify this using the global severity filter.

Trend Indicators

The Total Open column includes a trend indicator that shows the percentage change in open issues compared to the previous period:

  • Green arrow and percentage: A decrease in open vulnerabilities.

  • Red arrow and percentage: An increase in open vulnerabilities.

These indicators help you quickly understand whether the situation is improving or getting worse, and are consistent with those used in the Top Vulnerable Applications KPI.

Sorting and Pagination

  • Default sorting: Assets are sorted by the number of Critical issues, followed by High, then Medium, and finally Low (if shown).

  • Pagination: You can scroll through pages if your data set includes many assets.
