Release notes 02/26/2024
This release contains 2 significant UI changes:
Fusion's left main navigation menu has been reorganized to make it more intuitive and consistent. All the initial setup and configuration options have moved to Settings (also linked at the bottom of the main navigation menu now), and other items have been grouped into either Detect & Respond or Investigate sections. In addition, a few existing menu items have moved to become System Dashboards. All the detailed changes are listed below.
We've made tables in Fusion more flexible by adding a new Group By capability you can use in most table views in Fusion. This addition allows you to group tables by one or more columns, and get aggregate information (like counts, sums, averages) for those groups. For example, suppose you wanted to see your events grouped by severity and see how many of each severity level are in that view. You can now go to Investigate > Events, right-click on the column header for Severity, and select the new Group By option. More details on that are listed below.
