Report widgets

CoreView score by playbook

The score represents the percentage of policies that comply with their set thresholds out of all enabled policies with configured thresholds.

In this widget, you can see the score of every Out-of-the-Box playbook, with each percentage indicating the number of policies compliant out of all enabled policies within each specific playbook. 

This feature enables you to identify which playbooks are performing well and which ones need more attention, so you can allocate your resources effectively. 

Please be aware that a user's role influences what they can see in the score. Tenant Admins will have the ability to view a score that is relative to all playbooks. However, a Playbook Admin or a Global Viewer will only be able to see the score that corresponds to the playbooks they have been granted permission to access.

 

Total global administrators

This widget displays the total number of global admin and admin roles in real-time.

Users with the most mailbox access rights

This widget displays the users with the most mailbox access rights in real-time. 

Top 5 users with unsuccessful login attempts

This widget shows the User Principal Name of the top five users with unsuccessful login attempts in the last 60 days.

Wasted license cost

This widget displays the total number of disabled licensed users, inactive licensed users, and over licensed users in real-time.

Playbook widgets

On the Overview dashboard, each Out-of-the-box playbook is represented by a Playbook widget. These widgets display the top five playbook policies and their corresponding matched items. Matched items are color-coded in red or green based on their compliance with the set threshold.

To explore more policies, click the “N more items” link at the bottom of the widget. This will open a new window displaying all playbook policies, detailed information on matched items, and the set threshold. If your role permits you to do so, you can manage exceptions and edit the policy by clicking on the ellipsis under the “Action” column.

By clicking the “Go to dashboard” link in the bottom-right corner, you'll be redirected to the corresponding Playbook dashboard.

Customize Playbook widgets

You can personalize a Playbook widget by clicking the pencil icon in the top-right corner of the widget. A modal will appear, allowing you to select the top five policies to display and how you want the matched item value to be shown (as a percentage or number).

This customization is accessible to all Playbook roles and is user-specific, meaning changes will only be visible to the user who made them.

 

Please note, any policies disabled from Settings will not be visible in the Playbook widget.
