Security Center

WHAT'S INCLUDED

Security Center gives administrators a single, dedicated view of their organization's security posture, built on top of Eightfold's existing Instance Health framework. It continuously evaluates the instance against a broad set of security rules spanning access and authentication, data protection and privacy, communication and email security, and integration and infrastructure health. Each finding is organized into one of these categories and assigned a severity level (High, Medium, or Low), and an overall Security Score plus category-level scores summarize posture at a glance. Every finding links directly to the configuration screen needed to act on it, and a global employee access map gives administrators visibility into where their workforce is logging in from. The existing rule-based security functionality will be decommissioned as part of this release. Admins should rely on the Security Center's audit log for recent activity awareness going forward.

WHY IT MATTERS

• Centralized security visibility: Security-related risks are surfaced in a dedicated Security Center instead of being mixed in with general configuration health checks, so they no longer compete for attention with unrelated hygiene items.

• Prioritization by severity: Every finding carries a High, Medium, or Low severity label, so administrators can focus on the risks that matter most first.

• Faster remediation: Findings link directly to the relevant configuration screen, cutting down on time spent hunting for the right settings page.

• Track posture over time: An overall Security Score plus category-level scores make it easy to see whether security posture is improving and which categories need attention.

• Visibility into access patterns: A global map of employee login locations helps administrators spot access that looks disproportionate or unexpected for their organization.

• Recent activity awareness: An audit log trace surfaces security-relevant events from the last 30 days, helping administrators catch activity that could lead to a rule violation before it becomes a bigger issue.
