At-a-Glance Resource Profile View

Hover over any resource name in the Inventory, access graph (permission mapping), Activity Log, or Findings page to see a mini profile view that contains a selection of the most important information about the resource. This allows you to learn more about the resource without context-switching to another page to view this information.
