# DISCOVER Dashboard

The Dashboard provides a high-level view of scanning, investigation, and remediation activities across your environment. It has two views: the Dashboard, which shows aggregated metrics across all scans, and the Summary Report, which shows findings for all or specific scan jobs.

1. Navigate to **DISCOVER** > **Dashboard** and click **Dashboard**.
2. Use the scan job selector at the top of the page to select a specific scan and click **Filter**. <br>

### Dashboard

This is the default view when you navigate to the Dashboard. You can see the following performance indicators:

<table><thead><tr><th width="178">Metric</th><th width="313">Description</th><th>Operational Use</th></tr></thead><tbody><tr><td><strong>Number of Targets</strong></td><td>Total count of discovered targets available for scanning, including devices, Exchange mailboxes, and SharePoint sites.</td><td>Confirms scan coverage and scope of the environment.</td></tr><tr><td><strong>Total Files Scanned To Date</strong></td><td>Cumulative number of files examined across all scans since deployment.</td><td>Indicates overall scan activity and system throughput.</td></tr><tr><td><strong>Potential Sensitive Data</strong></td><td>Number of files containing at least one match to configured sensitive data types.</td><td>Highlights files that require review and possible action.</td></tr><tr><td><strong>Total Sent For Investigation</strong></td><td>Count of files flagged and downloaded via the Investigate function for deeper analysis.</td><td>Tracks investigation workload and analyst activity.</td></tr><tr><td><strong>Total Remediation</strong></td><td>Number of files on which remediation actions have been performed.</td><td>Measures remediation progress and response activity.</td></tr><tr><td><strong>Potential Data By Target</strong></td><td>Pie chart showing distribution of sensitive files across targets (devices, mailboxes, SharePoint sites).</td><td>Identifies high-risk targets with greater data exposure.</td></tr><tr><td><strong>Top 5 Targets With Large Number Of Data</strong></td><td>Lists the five targets with the highest number of sensitive files.</td><td>Helps prioritise remediation based on risk concentration.</td></tr><tr><td><strong>Remediation Action</strong></td><td>Breakdown of remediation actions performed (email to user, email to owner, moved, copied, deleted).</td><td>Provides visibility into action types and response patterns.</td></tr><tr><td><strong>Discovered vs Investigated vs Remediated Data</strong></td><td>Monthly graph comparing discovered, investigated, and remediated data volumes.</td><td>Highlights workflow gaps; large variances indicate backlog or delayed response.</td></tr></tbody></table>

### Summary Report

The Summary Report provides detailed findings for a specific scan job, rather than aggregated metrics across all scans. Use this when you need to understand exactly what a particular scan found, where sensitive data is located, and which targets are most affected.

1. Navigate to **DISCOVER** > **Dashboard** and click **Summary Report**.&#x20;
2. Select a specific scan job from the drop-down and click **Filter**.&#x20;

#### Targets by Data Type

This section shows how many unique targets contain each data type, along with the total number of files affected. Click on a result to see detailed findings broken down by device, SharePoint, and email. Use this to understand how broadly a particular type of sensitive data is distributed across your environment.

#### Files by Data Type&#x20;

This section shows a breakdown of files by context range, where context refers to the number of times a sensitive data pattern appears within a single file. The ranges are 0–5, 5–10, 10–20, 20–50, and 50+. A high concentration of files in the upper ranges may indicate bulk data stores such as databases or spreadsheets that require more attention.
