# Dashboard

The Dashboard page is a high-level overview of your risk register.

### Risk Matrix

The Risk Matrix is a traditional qualitative risk matrix, plotting Impact on the x-axis and probability on the y-axis.

The following options can be customized on the Risk Matrix:

* Matrix size (3x3, 5x5, etc)
* Axis titles (Impact, Probability)
* Legend titles (Minimal, Marginal, Significant, etc)
* Risk Banding (Number of risk levels and thresholds)
* Risk colors
* Axis labels (1, 2, 3, etc.)

The Risk Matrix will display the count of risks that fall into each cell of the matrix. Clicking on a cell will cross-filter the entire dashboard to only the risks within that cell.&#x20;

The three buttons above the Risk Matrix enable you to switch between plotting risks by their inherent, residual, or target risk.

### Total Risk Priority Bar Chart

The total risk priority bar chart plots the total inherent, residual, and target risk by a categorical field.&#x20;

The category being plotted by (the y-axis) can be changed using the drop down in the top right of the visual. The bar chart can be plotted by the following fields:

* Risk Status
* Risk Response Type
* Risk Category
* Risk Owner (Individual)
* Compensating Controls

### Count of Risks Donut Chart

The count of risks donut chart plots the number of risks by a categorical field.&#x20;

The category being plotted by can be changed using the drop down in the top right of the visual. The donut chart can be plotted by the following fields:

* Compensating Controls
* Risk Response Type
* Risk Status

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.securemetrics.io/securemetrics-risk-register/power-bi-template/dashboard.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
