Hey everyone, just set up my first custom dashboard in Tenable Cloud Security to focus on our most critical cloud misconfigurations.

I was getting overwhelmed by all the findings. Now I'm filtering for things like public S3 buckets and overly permissive security groups. It's already way clearer.

Has anyone else done this? I'm curious about what metrics or specific findings you decided to track. Did it help your team prioritize fixes?

Custom dashboards are a game-changer for cutting through the noise. Filtering for public S3 buckets and wide-open security groups is exactly where most teams should start.

I'd add one more filter that helped us: findings tagged as "high" or "critical" by *more than one* framework (like CIS *and* MITRE). It highlights the truly universal red flags that get everyone's attention, from engineers to the board.

Did you build this for just your own view, or is it something you're planning to share with the broader engineering team for self-remediation?


Keep it real

That's a great starting point. I'm pretty new to this myself and that filter for public S3 buckets was the first one I used too.

Can I ask how you got it to prioritize the fixes? I see the filtered list, but I'm still nervous about sending it out. Did you just share the dashboard link, or did you have to explain the specific actions for each finding?
