# Data Security dashboards

Learn more about predefined dashboards, which are out-of-the-box dashboards provided by Palo Alto Networks.

Cortex Data Security provides predefined dashboards that display widgets tailored to the dashboard type. The dashboards can help you monitor different aspects of your environment. To access your default dashboard, select **Dashboards & Reports → Dashboard**. From the dashboard header, a drop-down menu lists all available predefined and custom dashboards. The available dashboards depend on your license type.

Since predefined dashboards are system-managed and cannot be edited or deleted, you can create your own copy of a dashboard by selecting **Save as new**. This allows you to edit the widgets and configuration from your own custom version while preserving the original one.

<summary>Access and visibility</summary>

Since these dashboards are provided directly by Palo Alto Networks, they follow a standard access model:

* **Always Public**: These dashboards are always Public and visible to all authorized users. Unlike custom dashboards, you do not need to manage a list of who can see them.
* **Role permissions**: Your visibility and access to these dashboards are set by your administrator through your user role. If you are unable to view specific dashboards or perform certain actions, contact your administrator to ensure your role permissions are configured correctly.
* **Data scoping**: While the dashboard structure is public, the data you see within the widgets is automatically filtered based on your authorized data scope. For example, you will only see information for the asset groups you are permitted to view.

# 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://cortex-docs.paloaltonetworks.com/data-security-documentation/inventory-and-monitoring/dashboards-and-reports/data-security-dashboards.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.
