The Enterprise Guard dashboard offers a centralized, high-level view of your organization’s security and information governance insights in one unified view. Designed for Enterprise Guard administrators, this dashboard brings together key metrics across core domains—including Data Discovery, Classification, Content Lifecycle, and eDiscovery—into a single, consolidated interface. It enables quick visibility into current exposure, policy coverage, and legal readiness—empowering administrators to detect potential risks early, take timely, proactive measures, and address any areas requiring attention.
Each metric in the Enterprise Guard dashboard reflects real-time data, updated hourly during the beta release. All metrics are actionable and link directly to their respective domain dashboards, enabling administrators to explore detailed insights and configure settings as needed. Whether you're monitoring board sensitivity, classification status, retention policies, or legal holds, this dashboard provides a centralized starting point. This layered approach ensures consistency across the Enterprise Guard product and simplifies navigation for busy admins.
The Enterprise Guard dashboard is especially useful for Enterprise Guard Admins managing large-scale deployments on the Enterprise plan. It brings clarity to complex information governance setups and supports informed decision-making by consolidating the most important signals in one place. As part of our commitment to a more intuitive Enterprise Guard experience, the Enterprise Guard dashboard helps admins not only understand what’s happening, but also what to do next—with links to take action directly from the data. Whether you're reporting to leadership or managing day-to-day data governance, this dashboard ensures you can access relevant information quickly, prioritize actions, and demonstrate the value of your organization’s security and compliance strategy.
In addition to the Enterprise Guard dashboard, administrators can explore a suite of domain-specific dashboards designed to provide deeper insights and control across key areas of governance. Each of these dashboards enables focused decision-making within its respective area while maintaining alignment with the broader Enterprise Guard framework. These include:
- Data Discovery dashboard: surface and analyze where sensitive information resides across your boards.
- Classification dashboard: track and manage board-level classification coverage and sensitivity labels.
- Content Lifecycle dashboard: monitor data retention policies and automate lifecycle management actions.
- eDiscovery dashboard: gain visibility into legal holds and streamline eDiscovery preparation workflows.
Understand dashboard metrics
Enterprise Guard dashboards include two types of metrics: current metrics and historic metrics. To ensure clarity and consistency, each metric presented in the Enterprise Guard dashboards is defined in the Enterprise Guard dashboard metrics documentation.
Understand errors, empty states, and historical changes
Understanding how to interpret empty states and error messages is essential for accurately reading Enterprise Guard dashboard metrics. As this feature evolves from beta to general availability (GA), we are actively improving how we handle various scenarios. The following sections list what to expect in the Beta and GA releases.
Understand behavior of historical data when settings change
If a feature, such as Classification, is disabled after data has been collected, historic metrics will still show values from the active period. For example, if you disable Classification in May and Classification was active in April with 20 boards classified:
- April values will continue to appear on the dashboard.
- The May graph will display 0, as data collection has stopped.
Known Beta Limitations
In the beta release, not all empty states are clearly distinguished. For example, metrics might default to 0 in various graphs even when data is missing or incomplete. We are addressing this in the GA rollout to ensure better context and accuracy.
✏️ Moving a board outside of the organization does not update dashboard and content explorer metrics. These changes are currently not tracked and reflected in the data.
