Last Updated:Sep 05, 2023

The data risk feature allows you to view data risks that are identified by using the configured risk identification rules based on multiple dimensions. On the Risk Overview tab of the Data Risks page, you can view the distribution of data risks in different dimensions, the trend of data risks in a specified time range, and the rankings of workspaces in which most data risks are identified. You can obtain the time ranges and workspaces in which a large number of data risks are identified on this tab. On the Risk Details tab of the Data Risks page, you can view details about a data risk, such as the user who performed a risky operation on data, the time when the risky operation is performed, and the specific operation that is performed on the data. This helps you locate and handle data risks at the earliest opportunity. This topic describes the data risk feature.
