# 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
