# Threat Dashboard

## Overview

The Guardrails dashboard provides a centralised view of security threats detected across **AI agents, prompts, and tool invocations**. The Guardrails dashboard focuses on **runtime agentic security risks**, including prompt injection, unauthorised tool access, sensitive data leakage, and malicious agent behaviour.

## Guardrail States and Lifecycle

The main table lists all detected agentic security threats. Each row represents a consolidated security finding derived from one or more prompts, tool calls, or agent executions.

Guardrails are organized into the following operational states:

* **Active**\
  Guardrails that require investigation or remediation.
* **Under Review**\
  Guardrails currently being analyzed or validated.
* **Ignored**\
  Guardrails marked as non-actionable for the environment.

This lifecycle enables structured triage while preserving full execution context.

## Guardrail Attributes Displayed

Each guardrail entry includes the following attributes:

<table><thead><tr><th width="193.6640625">Attribute</th><th>Description</th></tr></thead><tbody><tr><td><strong>Severity</strong></td><td>Represents the risk level of the agentic guardrail based on exploitability and potential security impact.</td></tr><tr><td><strong>Guardrail Name</strong></td><td>Identifies the detected agentic security issue, such as prompt injection, excessive sensitive data exposure, or unauthorized tool access.</td></tr><tr><td><strong>Detection Type</strong></td><td>Indicates the detection category used to identify the violation, such as single-prompt analysis or tool invocation analysis.</td></tr><tr><td><strong>Number of Endpoints</strong></td><td>Indicates the count of agent-accessible endpoints or tools affected by the violation.</td></tr><tr><td><strong>Domains</strong></td><td>Lists the domains or agent platforms where the guardrail activity was observed.</td></tr><tr><td><strong>Compliance Mapping</strong></td><td>Shows the governance and compliance frameworks impacted by the detected agent behavior.</td></tr><tr><td><strong>Discovered</strong></td><td>Displays the timestamp when Akto first detected the violation.</td></tr></tbody></table>

## Compliance-Based Guardrail Filtering

#### Compliance Framework Selector

The Guardrails dashboard allows filtering agentic threats by compliance framework to support governance and audit workflows.

Supported frameworks include:

* CIS Controls
* CMMC
* CSA CCM
* FedRAMP
* FISMA
* GDPR
* HIPAA
* ISO 27001
* NIST 800-53
* NIST 800-171
* SOC 2
* OWASP

This filter helps you focus on agent behaviours that directly impact regulatory and internal security requirements.

## Navigating to Guardrail Activity Details

From the Guardrails dashboard, you can navigate to detailed guardrail activity views for request- and prompt-level investigation.

Select a guardrail from the Guardrails dashboard opens the **Guardrail Activity Detailed View**, which provides execution-level visibility into how the guardrail was detected.

From the detailed view, you can analyse:

* Prompts associated with the guardrail
* Tool invocations triggered by the agent
* Sensitive data accessed or exposed
* Guardrails violated during execution
* Repeated or anomalous agent behaviour patterns

# Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation

If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter:

```
GET https://ai-security-docs.akto.io/agentic-guardrails/concepts/threat-dashboard.md?ask=<question>
```

The question should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
