Dashboard Overview

Dashboard overview illustration

The Dashboard provides a real-time view of your organization’s compliance posture. It aggregates data from your scoped controls, evidence tracking, and framework mappings into actionable metrics.

At the top of the Implementation tab (the default tab), the Work Queue panel surfaces the items that need attention right now, with a count badge and an All / My work toggle:

SectionWhat it listsClicking a row
Overdue EvidenceEvidence collection tasks past their due date, oldest first, with days overdueOpens the Evidence tab
Blocking ControlsScoped controls still not started or at risk, with how long they’ve been staleOpens the control in Scoping
Stale CollectionsTracked evidence whose next collection date has passedOpens the Evidence tab

Switch to My work to narrow the list: overdue evidence to tasks assigned to you, and blocking controls to those you own or are assigned. Stale collections are organisation-wide in both modes — if you own an evidence item but someone else holds its collection task, it won’t appear under My work. An empty queue shows “No items requiring attention” — the state to aim for.

Each section shows up to 20 items, so the badge reflects what’s displayed rather than the full backlog. The queue refreshes when you return to the browser tab.

The hero section shows your total Controls in Scope—the SCF controls your organization has selected for implementation. The breakdown shows your top control domains by count.

Why this matters: This number represents your compliance footprint. More controls means broader coverage but also more implementation and evidence requirements.

This widget tracks the implementation state of your scoped controls:

StatusMeaning
Not StartedControl has been scoped but work hasn’t begun
In ProgressImplementation is underway
ImplementedControl is fully implemented and operational
At RiskImplementation is behind schedule or has issues
Not ApplicableControl doesn’t apply to your environment
DeferredImplementation postponed to a future date

The percentage shows how many controls are fully implemented. Aim for steady progress toward 100% for audit readiness.

Controls can be assessed at five maturity levels:

LevelDescription
InitialAd-hoc processes, no formal procedures
DevelopingBasic procedures exist but inconsistently applied
DefinedDocumented, standardized processes
ManagedProcesses are measured and monitored
OptimizedContinuous improvement based on metrics

The dashboard shows the distribution of controls across maturity levels and calculates an average maturity score. Higher maturity correlates with better audit outcomes.

This section shows:

  • Total Evidence Items — Unique evidence artifacts required by your scoped controls
  • Tracked Evidence — Evidence items actively being collected or maintained
  • Coverage Percentage — Tracked vs. total evidence

Evidence that isn’t tracked represents gaps that could surface during audits.

Compares each tracked evidence item’s declared collection frequency with the cadence at which files actually arrive, and counts the items that are misaligned. Expand the tile to see the observed cadence and apply the suggested frequency. The frequency sets the window the AI assesses, so a misaligned item is assessed against the wrong period; see AI evidence assessment.

For each compliance framework (ISO 27001, SOC 2, NIST, etc.), the dashboard displays:

  • Total controls mapped to that framework
  • Selected controls from your scope
  • Implementation progress by status

This helps you understand your compliance posture per framework and identify which frameworks have the most gaps.

This widget analyzes your evidence requirements against available collection interfaces:

PotentialMeaning
HighEvidence can be automatically collected via API integrations
MediumPartial automation possible with some manual steps
LowManual collection required with minimal automation
NoneNo automation interfaces defined

Prioritize implementing high-automation evidence first to reduce manual audit preparation effort.

The Evidence Gaps section highlights controls with missing or incomplete evidence. These are your highest-priority items for audit preparation.

Focus on:

  1. At Risk controls — These need immediate attention
  2. Evidence gaps — Missing evidence blocks audit readiness
  3. Low maturity controls — Opportunities for process improvement

Focus on:

  1. Framework coverage — Ensure your target framework shows high implementation percentage
  2. Evidence tracking percentage — Should be near 100% before audit
  3. Implementation status — Minimize “Not Started” and “In Progress” counts

The Dashboard provides data for executive summaries:

  • Overall implementation percentage
  • Average maturity level
  • Framework-specific compliance posture
  • Automation adoption rate

Dashboard data does not reload on a timer. The platform polls for a change notice every 20 seconds and shows “Updates available” in the header when there is something new. To pull it in:

  • Click the refresh icon in the header, or press R
  • The caption beside it (“Updated 3m ago”) tells you how stale what you are looking at is
  • Switching back to the tab also refetches the data on screen
