Dual Perspective Interface: Allows users to switch between technical finding details and simplified, non-technical descriptions of security risks.
Multi-Account Governance: Provides a unified dashboard to manage and monitor security posture across production, staging, and development environments.
Compliance Mapping: Aligns security findings with regulatory frameworks, including GDPR, SOC 2, ISO 27001, PCI-DSS, and Cyber Essentials.
