How to View Proactive Risk Insights

How to View Proactive Risk Insights

Prerequisites

  • At least one integration connected and syncing data
  • Access to the Dashboard and ZIN Copilot

  • How Proactive Insights Work

    ZIN continuously analyzes:

    Data SourceWhat ZIN Looks For
    IntegrationsNew vulnerabilities, configuration changes, alert spikes
    Asset ChangesNew assets appearing, assets going offline, unexpected changes
    Compliance DataControls falling out of compliance, evidence becoming stale
    Vendor RiskVendor risk score changes, overdue assessments
    Threat IntelligenceNew threats relevant to your technology stack

    When ZIN detects something noteworthy, it generates a proactive insight with:

  • What was detected — clear description of the issue
  • Why it matters — risk context and potential impact
  • What to do — specific remediation steps

  • Accessing Proactive Insights

    Via Dashboard

    Navigation: Sidebar → Dashboard
  • Click Dashboard in the sidebar.
  • Look for the Insights or Alerts section.
  • Proactive insights are displayed with severity indicators.
  • Via ZIN Copilot

    Navigation: Sidebar → ZIN Copilot
  • Open ZIN Copilot.
  • Ask: "What should I focus on today?" or "Are there any new risks?"
  • ZIN will provide its latest proactive insights tailored to your role.

  • Types of Proactive Insights

    TypeExample
    Critical Vulnerability"A critical vulnerability (CVE-2026-XXXX) affects 12 of your internet-facing servers"
    Configuration Drift"MFA was disabled for 3 admin accounts in the last 24 hours"
    Compliance Gap"Evidence for Control AC-2 is now 45 days stale — due for refresh"
    Anomalous Activity"Unusual outbound traffic detected from asset X"
    Vendor Risk Change"Vendor Y's risk score increased by 20 points due to a recent breach"

    Acting on Insights

    For each proactive insight:

  • Review the insight details and understand the context.
  • Assess the severity and urgency.
  • Act — follow the remediation suggestion provided by ZIN.
  • Track — add high-priority items to the Risk Register for ongoing management.
  • > Tip: Prioritize insights by severity. Critical insights with remediation steps should be acted on immediately.
