Data security dashboard

Microsoft Defender for Cloud's data security dashboard provides an interactive view of significant risks to sensitive data. It prioritizes alerts and potential attack paths across multicloud data resources, making data protection management more effective.

With the data security dashboard you can:

  • Easily locate and summarize sensitive data resources in your cloud data estate.
  • Identify and prioritize data resources at risk to prevent and respond to sensitive data breaches.
  • Investigate active high severity threats that lead to sensitive data.
  • Explore potential threats data by highlighting attack paths that lead to sensitive data.
  • Explore useful data insights by highlighting useful data queries in the security explorer.

To access the data security dashboard in Defender for Cloud, select Data Security.
