Last updated February 27, 2023 by Appdome

What are ThreatScope Views

ThreatScope Views enable saving the selected filter for future access.

Creating views can allow tracking different trends in ThreatScope, such as:

  • Emerging Threats Per App Release
  • Attack from a select set of Countries
  • Ensure Intelligence Collection Completence

This Knowledge Base article later specifies the steps of creating each of these views later.

ThreatScope Views Visibility Model

Views are not shareable and can only be accessed by the view’s creator.

Views are associated to a team or group of team, also known as “Workspaces.” The viewer will have access to the view as long as the viewer is entitled to access the threat data associated to the team, i.e the viewer is a member of the team and has the “View ThreatScope” entitlement in the team. The number of Views allowed is determined by license level.

To create a ThreatScope view:

  1. Access the ThreatScope Dashboard by click on the banner.

  2. Select the workspace to which the view is to be associated.

    After a change to a filter is applied, the filter section will be highlighted as such.

    This Filter indicator shows how many changes were applied to the filter. Clicking on the Revert button restores the original state of the selection filter. If changes were made on a view, clicking this button will revert back to the last saved state of the view. Otherwise, the filter will be restored to  its default state.
