Security Graphs
Overview
Security graphs provide a visual representation of data access and permissions within your 1Password environment. These graphs are designed to give you a clear and comprehensive view of who has accessed what data, when, and how. By utilizing security graphs, you can easily identify potential security issues, monitor user activities, and ensure that your organization’s data remains secure.
