How can a newly built custom dashboard be integrated into ES for security analysts?

Setting the dashboard permissions to allow access for es_analysts and adding it to the menu using the navigation editor is a key step in ensuring that security analysts can effectively use the new dashboard. This process involves granting the appropriate permissions that allow users with the es_analyst role to view the dashboard without compromising security or exposing unnecessary data to users outside of that role. By incorporating the dashboard into the menu through the navigation editor, it becomes part of the established user interface, allowing security analysts to easily access and utilize the dashboard in their daily tasks.

This method not only ensures that the dashboard is accessible to the right users but also maintains the overall integrity of the Splunk Enterprise Security environment, adhering to permissions and roles management best practices. Additionally, this approach fosters a more efficient workflow as security analysts can seamlessly navigate to their tools directly from the main ES interface. Integrating dashboards in this manner enhances usability and promotes better operational efficiency for security tasks.
