The Control Plane is your organisation’s command centre for data governance. It brings policy enforcement, security scanning, privacy classification, and compliance reporting into a single screen so you can maintain a consistent governance posture as your data estate grows. Navigate to Settings → Control Plane to access it. The six tabs each handle a distinct governance domain, and your active tab is reflected in the URL.
Control Plane configuration is org-admin only. Managers and employees work within the guardrails you set here — governance settings are not visible to them.

Scoreboard

Four read-only tiles at the top of the page give you an at-a-glance health check before you dive into any tab.

Active Policies

Number of governance policies currently armed and enforcing rules across your org

Policy Violations

Total violations detected by armed policies since the last reset

Critical Findings

High-severity issues surfaced by security scans that need immediate attention

PII Fields Protected

Count of sensitive data fields that have a masking, redaction, or flagging action applied

Policy Engine

The Policy Engine tab lists every governance policy available to your org and lets you arm or disarm each one independently.

Policy list

Each row in the policy table shows: Use the Enabled / Disabled switch on any row to activate or deactivate that policy without affecting others.
Per-agent policy rules are authored separately, on each agent’s Policy tab in the Agent Foundry — not from the Control Plane.

Security Scans

The Security Scans tab surfaces vulnerabilities across your connected infrastructure — credential leaks, weak authentication, and misconfigured surfaces.

Scan list

Each scan entry shows:

Running scans

Run all scans after adding a new data source or rotating credentials to verify your configuration is clean before agents start querying the new connection.

Privacy & PII

The Privacy & PII tab discovers and classifies sensitive columns across all your connected data sources, so you can make informed decisions about how each field is handled.

Running a PII scan

Click Run PII Scan to start a scan across all connected sources. Nexalytica analyses column names, data types, and sample values to detect personally identifiable information.

PII counters

Three counters update after each scan run:

PII field table

Each detected field appears as a row:

Setting a per-field action

Use the Action dropdown on each row to choose how Nexalytica treats that field when agents access it:

Data Quality

Data Quality is coming soon. This tab is reserved for a future milestone and displays an on-screen notice confirming it is not yet available. No data populates it at this time.
When it launches, the Data Quality tab will provide automated checks and scorecards for the data flowing through your connected sources. Watch the Nexalytica release notes for availability.

Reports

The Reports tab lets you generate governance and compliance reports from your Control Plane data and download them for stakeholders or regulatory submissions.
File generation and download are arriving in a later milestone. You can configure report parameters and queue a report today, but the Download button is currently disabled (hover for a tooltip confirming this). Generated reports will appear in the Recent reports list and become downloadable once the feature ships.
