1
Read the metrics
Look at the detailed metrics under Your Microsoft 365 posture.
2
Pick a metric
Select a clickable metric to narrow Items needing attention to its finding type. Scroll to the findings table if it is out of view.
3
Search
Type a name or phrase in the Finding column filter. It also searches descriptions, identifiers, company or tenant text, and status or severity.
4
Page through results
The table shows 25 rows at first. You can switch to 10, 25, 50 or 100.
5
Open a finding
Click the row or its detail arrow to open the right-hand panel.
Know which metrics open findings
Available metrics can open these related datasets:
A metric is clickable only when it has evidence. Other metrics, such as managed devices, sign-in policies, active alerts, intercepted mail and failed sign-ins, do not open their records here, so a count can exist without a matching list.
The full findings table can also hold Outdated sign-in methods, Admin access, Suspicious inbox rules, Shared mailboxes allowing sign-in and Critical software weaknesses. These are selected categories, not a complete inventory. Some rows are records for review, not proven problems. An Admin access row, for example, does not mean access is unsafe.
Read the detail panel
Read the name and description, then Provider context and Posture signal. Context can include Company, Tenant, Tenant domain, Category, Dataset and Enabled. Signal includes Status, Severity, Last synced and, when supplied, Observed in source. In the table, Status can show the severity label instead of the source status, so read the detail fields too. Unknown, or a missing description, means the source supplied too little to judge. It does not mean safe. Provider record IDs, source endpoints and the raw Source payload need integration-settings read access. The panel is not a settings editor. Close it with the close button or Escape.What this table does not offer
Current Posture has no CSV or PDF export, bulk actions, manual sorting, Status or Severity dropdown, or date selector. Use the Finding search and the metric filters. The Type and Status columns are labels, not filters. The per-company page has no Company column or filter. Company users start with the Home AI Assistant for help; include the finding and timestamps. MSP staff can review or reopen a finding when permitted.Troubleshooting
Frequently asked questions
Why does clicking a metric do nothing?
Why does clicking a metric do nothing?
Only metrics with available evidence and a supported finding dataset are clickable. Other metrics are summary-only.
Does Admins without MFA open only administrator accounts?
Does Admins without MFA open only administrator accounts?
No. It opens the same People without MFA dataset as the coverage metric. That list is not an exact drilldown of the admin count.
Why does a finding-type filter appear above the table?
Why does a finding-type filter appear above the table?
It came from a metric selection. Use Clear finding type filter on its badge to remove it; Clear Filters handles the table text filter separately.
Why are results empty after selecting a metric on a later page?
Why are results empty after selecting a metric on a later page?
Metric selection currently preserves the page number. Return to page one and select the metric again before concluding there are no matching findings.
Can I filter Type or Status using their column headings?
Can I filter Type or Status using their column headings?
No. The current reader offers Finding text search and supported metric-driven finding-type filters, not separate Type or Status dropdowns.
Can I export all Current Posture findings?
Can I export all Current Posture findings?
This table has no CSV or PDF export. Secure Score has a separate management-permission CSV workflow.
Does every row represent a confirmed threat?
Does every row represent a confirmed threat?
No. The table contains curated source categories and review items. Admin access or a suspicious-rule category alone is not proof of malicious activity.
Why can my MSP see source payload details that I cannot?
Why can my MSP see source payload details that I cannot?
Provider IDs, endpoints and payload details require integration-settings read access. Normal Company readers do not receive that management detail.
