Dashboard redesign

The CEM dashboard has been redesigned for better usability and enhanced visibility into the excessive permissions and privileged access gaps and critical issues found in customers' multi-cloud environments.

The new, enhanced dashboard clearly highlights high-severity issues that should be investigated and remediated, such as identities with high exposure levels and identities that have shadow admin access. Users can drill through directly from the dashboard to begin investigating affected identities and mitigate risk.

CEM's newest feature analyzes code and fine tunes permissions to reduce the risk of excessive privileges, which positions security teams to better partner with developers and the software development lifecycle.
