To open the Policy Violations page go to Compliance > Governance Administration > Policy Violations.
On the Policy Violations page, you get an overview of company policies and the corresponding policy violations, and generate detailed reports about them (see Displaying company policies and violations). This information can help to determine gaps in your security or compliance policies and to develop attestation policies or mitigating controls. Mitigation comprises processes existing outside the One Identity Manager solution and that reduce the risk of violation.
The following tables give you an overview of the various features and content on the Policy Violations page.

Risk index |
Shows the severity of the policy violation (meaning the calculated risk index). The higher this value is, the higher the risk that this policy violation poses. |
