Heatmap

The heatmap in the Web Portal presents roles and organizations as colored squares. They are intended to help you quickly visualize particularly prominent values within a large amount of data and to comprehend them at a glance. The size of the rectangles corresponds to the relative size of the role or organization. The more employees you have in a company's structure, for example, the larger the rectangle in the view.

The rectangle colors correspond to a selectable linked in data value and range from red to green, where red stands for a value tending to required more attention. Red signals, for example, a lot of compliance rule violations or employees with high risk indexes. The color 'yellow' stands for an average, which can also mean that there has been no changes to this company structure since the last analysis. The heatmap not only provides a clear overview of the current data, it also provides another useful function by making a historical comparison to previous data.

You can see the following risky results or properties in a heatmap.

• Policy violations
• Average number of permissions per employee
• Highest employee risk index
