The Dashboard is your consolidated command center for AI asset activity across your organization, providing a real-time snapshot of your AI exposure, asset breakdown by type, and full risk distribution.
What is the Dashboard?
The Dashboard is your consolidated command center for AI asset activity across your organization. It gives you a real-time snapshot of your AI exposure, asset breakdown by type, and a full risk distribution view — all in one place.
Overview Metrics
At the top of the Dashboard, you will find two headline numbers:
- Unique Assets — The number of distinct AI-related software items discovered across all endpoints. Each asset is counted once regardless of how many devices it appears on.
- Instances — The total count of asset installations across all endpoints. An asset installed on five machines counts as five instances.
These two numbers together give you a sense of both the breadth (how many different tools exist) and the depth (how widely they are distributed) of AI adoption in your organization.
Asset Types Breakdown
The asset type cards break your inventory down by category, showing both the number of unique assets and total instances for each type:
| Asset Type | What it covers |
|---|---|
| Application | Desktop and web applications with AI capabilities |
| AI Skill | AI-powered scripting frameworks and agent toolkits |
| Browser Extension | AI tools installed directly in the browser |
| IDE Plugin | Developer-facing AI coding assistants and tools |
| MCP Server | Model Context Protocol servers extending AI agent capabilities |
| Running Process | AI-related processes actively running in memory on the endpoint |
| Background Service | AI-related services running in the background, often at system startup |
| Node_env | AI-related packages and libraries in local Node.js environments |
| Python_env | AI-related packages and libraries in local Python environments |
| Sandboxed App | AI applications running in an isolated or sandboxed environment |
What to Look For
A high Browser Extension count may indicate widespread unsanctioned AI tool usage. A high MCP Server count is a signal to review agent access policies. Use this breakdown to understand which asset categories need the most governance attention.
Risk Breakdown
The Risk Breakdown section shows the distribution of your unique assets and total asset instances across all four risk tiers:
| Risk Level | What it shows |
|---|---|
| Critical | Unique assets and total instances rated Critical — requires immediate action |
| High | Unique assets and total instances rated High — should be reviewed promptly |
| Medium | Unique assets and total instances rated Medium — warrants monitoring |
| Low | Unique assets and total instances rated Low — standard governance applies |
Interpreting Your Risk Posture
Healthy Posture
A healthy posture shows zero Critical assets and a small number of High assets relative to your overall inventory. Any items in the Critical or High tiers should be investigated and either approved with documented controls or remediated.
The ratio of unique assets to total instances is also informative. A single High-risk asset with 30 instances across the fleet is a higher priority than the same asset on a single device.
