Interno: Metrics & Glossary

A reference for the terms, features, and dashboard metrics you'll see across Interno (the Zeron Command Center). Use it to understand what each KPI represents and what the platform's building blocks mean.

Platform & Navigation

TermWhat it means
Posture DashboardThe unified overview of your security health across all connected tools — posture score, asset overview, risk summary, integration health, and recent alerts.
Asset InventoryThe consolidated list of all assets discovered from your connected integrations (and manual uploads), with a comparison matrix across sources.
Integration / ConnectorA link between Interno and an external security tool, cloud provider, or IT system (e.g., Microsoft Defender, CrowdStrike, AWS, Azure) that pulls data in automatically.
Manual IngestionUploading security or asset data by file (CSV/Excel) when it isn't available through a connector.
Query LibraryA collection of Standard (pre-built) and Custom queries used to analyze your security data, plus the home for Alerts and Evidence Queries.
Evidence QueryA saved query that produces compliance evidence (shared with Conformity) so the same data supports both security operations and audits.
Risk RegisterWhere identified risks are tracked and managed through their full lifecycle.
WidgetA single visualization (chart, table, or KPI tile) built from a query and placed on a dashboard.

AI & Automation

TermWhat it means
ZIN CopilotInterno's AI conversational assistant for security insights, commands, and analysis across your connected stack.
Morning BriefingA scheduled AI-generated summary of your security posture, delivered on a cadence you set.
Proactive Risk InsightsAI-surfaced risks and recommendations that ZIN identifies by continuously analyzing your connected data.
One-Click RemediationActing on a finding directly from Interno, where the connected tool permits remediation actions.
HITL Approval (Human-in-the-Loop)A checkpoint where an AI agent's sensitive action waits for a human to approve before it runs.
Agent TaskA unit of work initiated by an AI agent, which may require an HITL approval before completing.

Access & Permissions

TermWhat it means
ScopeA permission string that grants a specific action (e.g., defence:dashboard:view). Without the required scope, a user sees an "Unauthorized" screen.
GroupA bundle of permission policies. Users added to a group inherit all its permissions — the recommended way to manage access.
PolicyA set of permissions that can be attached to a group or directly to a user.
