Overview

The Backlog page aggregates your organization's security findings in a table that is easily searched, filtered, and exported.

Filtering and custom views

You can filter the findings list by selecting parameters in the widgets at the top of the page, or by modifying the applied filters list by selecting filter options from the Add Filter + drop-down. Select Clear Filter to return to the complete list of findings. Use custom views to save discrete combinations of filter parameters for clear, consistent monitoring of your organization's security stance. Custom views are also used to determine which findings appear in Slack. The default custom view displays whenever you navigate to the backlog page after logging in to a new session.
