receive a first input on a first connection of the one or more connections, the first connection between the network entity and a first entity of the one or more source entities or one or more destination entities; and

in response to the first input, display, on the display, a drill down view screen of first security rules applicable to communication between the network entity and the first entity, the drill down view screen comprising:

a list of the first security rules arranged in priority order; and

one or more details about each security rule of the first security rules.

9 . The computing system of claim 8 , wherein the at least one processor is further configured to:

receive a filter parameter in a filter field of the security posture summary screen; and

in response to the receiving the filter parameter, display a filtered security posture summary screen of the network entity, the filtered security posture summary screen comprising:

a depiction of the network entity; and

a depiction of a subset of the one or more source entities or one or more destination entities, wherein the subset includes any of the one or more source entities or one or more destination entities that have a same parameter as the filter parameter;

10 . The computing system of claim 9 , wherein the filter parameter specifies one or more of a policy name, a policy status, a rule comment, a rule identifier, a rule name, a second comment, a source entity name, a source IP address, or a source group.

11 . The computing system of claim 8 , wherein for at least one security rule of the first security rules, the one or more details comprises an insights item indicating one or more of whether the rule is possibly a dead rule or a duplicate rule.

12 . The computing system of claim 8 , wherein the security posture summary screen comprises a toggle for toggling between depicting entities as services and depicting entities as groups or static IP addresses.

13 . The computing system of claim 8 , wherein the network entity comprises a virtual computing instance, and wherein each of the one or more source entities or one or more destination entities comprise at least one of a static IP address, a security group, or a service application.

14 . The computing system of claim 8 , wherein the at least one processor is further configured to:

receive a second input on the first connection of the one or more connections; and

in response to the second input, display, on the display, a quick view screen of the first security rules, the quick view screen comprising:

a depiction of the number of security rules, for each of the one or more types of rules, applicable to communication between the network entity and the first entity; and

for each of the one or more types of rules, a depiction of one or more services to which a security rule of the number of security rules applies.

15 . A non-transitory computer readable media storing instructions, that when executed by a computer system, causes the computer system to perform operations for visualizing a security posture of a network entity, the operations comprising:

displaying, on a display, a security posture summary screen of a network entity, the security posture summary screen comprising:

a depiction of the network entity;
