# Evidence Dashboard

> View and manage compliance evidence in the Continum dashboard

## Overview

The Evidence Dashboard provides a comprehensive view of your compliance evidence, including cryptographic verification, regulatory attestations, incident management, and evidence package generation.

## Accessing the Evidence Dashboard

Navigate to the Evidence section in your Continum dashboard:

```
https://app.continum.co/evidence
```

## Dashboard Sections

### Hash Chain Verification

View the cryptographic integrity of your compliance records.

#### Features

* **Signal Count**: Total signals in the chain
* **Last Verification**: Timestamp of last verification
* **Tamper Detection**: Alerts if tampering is detected

#### Actions

* **Verify Now**: Run immediate verification
* **Download Chain**: Export complete hash chain
* **View Details**: See individual hash values

### Regulatory Attestations

View how your signals map to regulatory requirements.

#### Features

* **Framework Selection**: Filter by GDPR, SOC 2, ISO 27001, HIPAA, etc.
* **Coverage Percentage**: Visual coverage indicator
* **Requirement Mapping**: Signals mapped to specific requirements
* **Gap Analysis**: Uncovered requirements with recommendations

#### Filters

* Framework (GDPR, SOC2, ISO27001, HIPAA, CCPA, EU\_AI\_ACT, PCI\_DSS)
* Date range

### Incident Management

Track and manage high-risk compliance incidents.

#### Incident List

View all incidents with:

* Download status

#### Generate Package

1. Click "Generate Package"
2. Select framework
3. Choose date range
4. Select options:
   * Include incidents
   * Include hash chain
   * Include coverage analysis
5. Generate

Package generation takes 30-60 seconds. You'll receive a notification when ready.

#### Download Package

* Executive summary
* Compliance attestations
* Incident reports
* Hash chain verification
* Coverage analysis
* Recommendations

### Data Retention

Manage data retention while preserving compliance evidence.

#### Retention Status

View:

* Total signals
* Eligible for deletion
* Protected by incidents
* Oldest signal date
* Newest signal date

#### Retention Policies

View and manage retention policies:

* Framework
* Minimum retention days
* Maximum retention days
* Active status

#### Delete Signals

1. View eligible signals
2. Select signals to delete
3. Confirm deletion
4. Signals deleted, hashes preserved

Protected signals (involved in active incidents) cannot be deleted.

### Pattern Correlations

View detected patterns across multiple signals.

#### Correlation List

* Correlation ID
* Violation type
* Signal count
* Severity (MEDIUM, HIGH, SYSTEMIC\_ISSUE)
* Detection date

#### Correlation Details

Click any correlation to view:

* Related signals
* Risk level distribution
* Sandbox type distribution
* Timeline
* Escalation status

#### Escalate Correlation

Manually escalate correlations to SYSTEMIC\_ISSUE status for high-priority attention.
