Data Security Command Center
Helping enterprises identify security gaps, quantify data risk, and act on clear recommendations to improve their data security posture.
Problem
Security information was scattered across the Rubrik UI.
There was no single place to see how safe a company’s data was, which settings left it exposed, or what to fix first. Security admins, backup admins and executives all needed that view.
Answering a simple question like “how safe is our data right now?” meant visiting several pages and piecing the answer together, and there was no easy way to show progress to leadership.
Solution
One dashboard with a security score, what’s behind it, and what to do next.
The Command Center works like a credit score for data security: one number teams can track over time, and clear steps to improve it.
A single score for data security
The score breaks down into four metrics, with a plain-language rating and a timeline of how it has changed, so anyone can see where the company stands.
The four metrics cover platform security, anomaly detection, data security posture, and data protection and recovery. Each shows how many recommendations are waiting, so users know where to look before they click in.
Recommendations that raise the score
Each metric opens into recommendations that users can act on right there. The timeline explains how and why the score changed, so teams can see the impact of the work they’ve done.
A report executives can read in minutes
One click creates a report for executives and security leaders. Instead of pages of raw data, it sums up the company’s posture in a few clear recommendations, so leaders can decide what to strengthen.

Outcome
Recognized at Best of VMware Explore 2022.
The Command Center won an honorable mention in Security, Networking and Edge at Best of VMware Explore 2022. Building it from scratch let us move past existing patterns, and competitors later shipped similar experiences of their own.
