How do dashboards differ from reports in Cortex XDR?

Cortex XDR dashboards are designed to provide a dynamic, near-real-time visual representation of security data through customizable widgets. They offer an at-a-glance overview of the current security posture, alerts, and endpoint status, refreshing automatically to reflect the latest information. In contrast, reports are used to generate static snapshots of data at a specific point in time. A primary feature of reports is the ability to run them on-demand or schedule them for automated generation and distribution (e.g., via email) in formats like PDF or CSV, making them ideal for historical analysis, compliance, and periodic stakeholder updates.
