What-If Analysis

Capture Security Center users can look at how their DEFCON and SHIELD scores may be impacted using the What-If scenario simulations to turn on or off specific layers. Any change made here can be reset to return to the original DEFCON and SHIELD scores.

All scoring using the DEFCON and SHIELD metrics are based only on the possibility of protection against the defined threat types and are no guarantees of actual risk posed to the organization.

To access and use the What-If analysis:

1. Click on either DEFCON or SHEILD LEVEL.
2. Click the What If icon at the bottom of the DEFCON DETAILS window.
3. Expand any of the options in the SECRUITY BREAKDOWN section.

4. Make changes to the options provided to see how your coverage changes. ENDPOINT SECURITY is shown as an example.

   Before:	After:

5. Make other adjustments in the other layers, as desired.
6. To restore the original scores, click the DEFCON icon at the bottom of the DEFCON DETAILS window.
