Viewing your dashboards

Use dashboards to view the types and severity of risk and policy violations that are associated with the components that are in one or more versions of your projects. Dashboards provide an overall view across your projects, components, and vulnerabilities.

Users have access to three distinct dashboards, each designed to provide valuable insights and facilitate effective vulnerability management:

  • Dashboard: The main Dashboard serves as the central hub for users, offering a comprehensive view of your projects and their associated vulnerabilities. Here, you can quickly access key metrics, monitor overall security posture, and navigate to specific components or reports. The Main Dashboard provides a high-level overview, helping you stay informed about the status of your projects at a glance.

  • Summary: The Summary dashboard provides a detailed breakdown of vulnerabilities and risks associated with your projects. This dashboard focuses on summarizing critical information, including the number of vulnerabilities, their severity levels, and remediation statuses. Users can leverage this data to prioritize their remediation efforts and track progress over time.

  • New Vulnerabilities: The New Vulnerabilities dashboard is specifically designed to highlight recently identified vulnerabilities across your projects. This dashboard allows users to quickly identify and assess new risks, enabling prompt action to mitigate potential threats. It provides an updated view of vulnerabilities that have been added since the last scan, ensuring you are always aware of the most current security issues.

So that you can view the projects and project versions that are important to you, Black Duck's provides two default dashboards and the ability for you to create an unlimited number of custom dashboards.

Black Duck displays these two default dashboards:

  • Watching. Your watched projects.

  • My Projects. All of your projects, including projects that you are not watching.

These dashboards display information on the Dashboard page at the project level.

In addition, you can create custom dashboards so that you can quickly view the project versions, component versions, and vulnerabilities that are important to you: search for projects, components, and/or vulnerabilities and then save the searches; use the Dashboard page to view the information from those saved searches.

Viewing dashboards

To view the dashboards, click Dashboard Icon.

The dashboard page that appears depends on the last dashboard (a specific Dashboard page or Summary Dashboard) you viewed previously. If not displayed, select Dashboard to display your dashboards.

Exporting to CSV

You can export your Dashboard to CSV which converts the individual rows to tabular data. To do so, click the Export CSV button button and select CSV.
