# Working with the dashboard in Security Hub CSPM
Summary dashboard

On the Security Hub CSPM console, the **Summary** dashboard shows a summary of your risks, attack sequences, and security coverage. This dashboard helps you identify risks and attack sequences based on severity and account coverage for different security capabilities. Each time you open the dashboard, it refreshes automatically. Note, however, that security scores and control statuses refresh every 24 hours. 

You can customize the **Summary** dashboard by adding and removing different security widgets from it. You can also specify filter criteria to retrieve and display particular types of data. If you customize the dashboard, Security Hub saves your customization settings. If other users of your account customize the dashboard, their changes are saved independently from your customization settings. 

If you configured cross-Region aggregation in Security Hub CSPM, the **Summary** dashboard shows your aggregated data. If your account is the delegated administrator account for an organization, the data includes findings for your account and your member accounts. If your account is a member account or a standalone account, the data includes findings only for your account.

## Available widgets for the Summary dashboard


The **Summary** dashboard includes widgets that reflect the modern cloud security threat landscape, guided by the security operations and experiences of Amazon customers. Some widgets are shown by default while others are not. You can customize your view of the dashboard by adding or removing widgets.

To add a widget, choose **Add widget** at the top of the dashboard. You can then browse the list of available widgets or enter the title of a widget in the search bar. When you find the widget to add, drag it to the location where you want it to appear on the dashboard. For more information, see [Customizing the dashboard](customize-dashboard.md).

### Widgets shown by default


By default, the **Summary** dashboard includes the following widgets.

**Top threat sequences**  
Displays the highest severity threat sequences. Threat sequence findings, known as *attack sequence findings* in Amazon GuardDuty, correlate multiple events to identify potential threats to your Amazon environment. Threat sequences may include in-progress or recent attack behaviors (within a 24-hour time window) in your environment, which may in turn lead to further compromise. You must have GuardDuty and GuardDuty S3 Protection enabled to receive threat sequence findings in Security Hub CSPM.

**Top risks**  
Displays a summary of the top risks in your environment. The top of the widget shows you the count of risks at each severity level. You can choose a severity level to go to the **Risks** page with risks filtered to the selected severity level. Risks that have the most occurrences in your environment appear first. This widget helps you prioritize which risks to mitigate.

**Security coverage**  
Summarizes the extent of your security coverage, based on coverage control findings. Coverage controls check whether a specific Amazon Web Services service and its capabilities are enabled (for example, [[Macie.1] Amazon Macie should be enabled](macie-controls.md#macie-1)). This widget helps you ensure that you have `PASSED` findings for coverage controls. The Security Hub CSPM console provides links from this widget to help you enable missing security capabilities. We recommend using central configuration to enable missing security capabilities across multiple Amazon Web Services accounts and Amazon Web Services Regions. For more information, see [Understanding central configuration in Security Hub CSPM](central-configuration-intro.md).

**Security standards**  
Displays your most recent summary security score and the security score for each Security Hub CSPM standard. Security scores, which range from 0–100 percent, represent the proportion of passed controls relative to all of your enabled controls. For more information about these scores, see [Method of calculating security scores](standards-security-score.md#standard-security-score-calculation). This widget helps you understand your overall security posture.

**Assets with the most findings**  
Provides an overview of the resources, accounts, and applications that have the most findings. The list is sorted in descending order by the number of findings. In the widget, each tab shows the top six items in that category, grouped by severity and resource type. If you choose a number in the **Total findings** column, Security Hub CSPM opens a page that shows the findings for the asset. This widget helps you quickly identify which of your core assets have potential security threats.

**Findings by Region**  
Shows the total number of findings, grouped by severity, in each Amazon Web Services Region in which Security Hub CSPM is enabled. This widget helps you identify security issues that potentially affect particular Regions. If you open the dashboard in your aggregation Region, this widget helps you monitor potential security issues in each linked Region. 

**Most common threat types**  
Provides a breakdown of the 10 most common types of threats in your Amazon environment. This includes threats such as escalation of privileges, use of exposed credentials, or communication with malicious IP addresses.  
To view this data, [Amazon GuardDuty](https://docs.amazonaws.cn/guardduty/latest/ug/securityhub-integration.html) must be enabled. If it is, choose a threat type in this widget to open the GuardDuty console and review findings related to this threat. This widget helps you evaluate potential threats in the context of other security issues.

**Software vulnerabilities with exploits**  
Provides a summary of software vulnerabilities that exist in your Amazon environment and have known exploits. You can also review a breakdown of vulnerabilities that do and don't have fixes available.  
To view this data, [Amazon Inspector](https://docs.amazonaws.cn/inspector/latest/user/securityhub-integration.html) must be enabled. If it is, choose a statistic in this widget to open the Amazon Inspector console and review more details about the vulnerability. This widget helps you evaluate software vulnerabilities in the context of other security issues.

**New findings over time**  
Shows trends in the number of new daily findings during the past 90 days. You can break down the data by severity or by provider for additional context. This widget helps you understand if finding volume spiked or dropped at specific times during the past 90 days.

**Resources with the most findings**  
Provides a summary of the resources that have generated the most findings, broken down by the following resource types: Amazon Simple Storage Service (Amazon S3) buckets, Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (Amazon EC2) instances, and Amazon Lambda functions.  
In the widget, each tab focuses on one of the preceding resource types, listing the 10 resource instances that generated the most findings. To review the findings for a specific resource, choose the resource instance. This widget helps you triage security findings that are associated with common Amazon resources.

### Widgets hidden by default


The following widgets are also available for the **Summary** dashboard, but they are hidden by default.

**AMIs with the most findings**  
Provides a list of the 10 Amazon Machine Images (AMIs) that have generated the most findings. This data is available only if Amazon EC2 is enabled for your account. It helps you identify which AMIs pose potential security risks.

**IAM principals with the most findings**  
Provides a list of the 10 Amazon Identity and Access Management (IAM) users that have generated the most findings. This widget helps you perform administrative and billing tasks. It shows you which users contribute to Security Hub CSPM usage the most.

**Accounts with the most findings (by severity)**  
Shows a graph of the 10 accounts that have generated the most findings, grouped by severity. This widget helps you determine which accounts to focus analysis and remediation efforts on.

**Accounts with the most findings (by resource type)**  
Shows a graph of the 10 accounts that have generated the most findings, grouped by resource type. This widget helps you determine which accounts and resource types to prioritize for analysis and remediation.

**Insights**  
Lists five [Security Hub CSPM managed insights](securityhub-managed-insights.md) and the number of findings that they generated. Insights identify a specific security area that requires attention.

**Latest findings from Amazon integrations**  
Shows the number of findings that you received in Security Hub CSPM from [integrated Amazon Web Services services](securityhub-internal-providers.md). It also shows when you most recently received findings from each integrated service. This widget provides consolidated findings data from multiple Amazon Web Services services. To drill down, choose an integrated service. Security Hub CSPM then opens the console for that service.

# Filtering the Summary dashboard in Security Hub CSPM
Filtering the dashboard

You can curate the **Summary** dashboard on the Security Hub CSPM console so that it includes only the security data that's most relevant to you. For example, if you're a member of an application team, you might create a dedicated view for a critical application in your production environment. If you're a member of a security team, you might create a dedicated view that helps you focus on high-severity findings.

To create these curated views, enter filter criteria in the filter box above the dashboard. If you apply filter criteria, the criteria apply to all the data and widgets on the dashboard, except the data in the **Insights** and **Security standards** widgets. For a list of available widgets on the dashboard, see [Available widgets for the Summary dashboard](dashboard.md#available-widgets).

You can filter the data by using the following fields:
+ Account name
+ Account ID
+ Application ARN
+ Application name
+ Product name (for an Amazon Web Services service or third-party product that sends findings to Security Hub CSPM)
+ Record state
+ Region
+ Resource tag
+ Severity
+ Workflow status

By default, dashboard data is filtered using the following criteria: `Workflow.Status` is `NOTIFIED` or `NEW`, and `RecordState` is `ACTIVE`. These criteria appear above the dashboard, below the filter box. To remove these criteria, choose **X** in the filter token for the criteria that you want to remove.

If you apply filter criteria that you want to use again, you can save it as a *filter set*. A filter set is a set of filter criteria that you create and save to reapply when you review data on the **Summary** dashboard. You can create and save a filter set that uses any of the available fields except the following fields: Application ARN, application name, and resource tag.

## Creating and saving filter sets
