About

The TLS Metrics Dashboard provides a centralized view of all your SSL/TLS monitoring metrics, including certificate expiry timelines, security scores, compliance status, and connection performance. It aggregates data from all monitoring tools into a single operational dashboard for at-a-glance visibility into your TLS infrastructure health.

The dashboard displays key performance indicators (KPIs) including total certificates monitored, average security score, compliance percentage, certificates expiring soon, and active alerts. Trend charts show how metrics change over time, helping you identify patterns and proactively address issues before they impact users.

How to Use

  1. 1Access the dashboard from the main navigation menu
  2. 2View the summary KPIs at the top for overall TLS health
  3. 3Drill down into specific metric categories using the navigation tabs
  4. 4Configure alert thresholds and display preferences in the dashboard settings

Use Cases

  • Operational Overview: Get instant visibility into TLS health across your entire infrastructure without checking individual tools
  • Executive Reporting: Generate summary reports showing TLS security posture, compliance status, and improvement trends for leadership
  • Incident Response:** Quickly assess the scope of TLS issues during security incidents by viewing aggregate metrics
  • Capacity Planning:** Use trend data to plan certificate renewals, infrastructure upgrades, and security investments
  • Team Coordination:** Share dashboard access with DevOps, security, and compliance teams for unified visibility

Tips & Best Practices

  • Customize the dashboard layout to prioritize the metrics most relevant to your role
  • Set up scheduled dashboard reports for weekly or monthly management reviews
  • Use the alert configuration to surface critical metrics that need immediate attention
  • Compare dashboard metrics month-over-month to demonstrate security improvement progress

Frequently Asked Questions

The dashboard shows: total certificates monitored, certificates expiring within 30/60/90 days, average security score, compliance percentage by standard, active alerts, TLS handshake performance, cipher suite distribution, and protocol version usage. All metrics include historical trend data.
Yes, the dashboard is fully customizable. You can add, remove, and rearrange metric widgets, create custom views for different roles (executive, technical, compliance), and save multiple dashboard configurations. Custom metrics can be added via the API integration.
Individual tool reports provide deep detail for specific domains or checks. The dashboard aggregates data across all domains and tools to provide operational-level visibility. Think of it as the "health overview" while individual tools provide the "diagnostic detail."
