-  * **Attack path visualization** : The attack path visualization provides an interactive diagram showing how potential attackers could exploit the identified exposure. It maps resource relationships, network paths, and potential impact flow, helping security teams understand the full scope of the risk and plan effective remediation strategies.
+  * **Potential attack path and blast radius visualization** : The potential attack path and blast radius visualization provides an interactive diagram showing how potential attackers could exploit the identified exposure. It maps resource relationships, network paths, and privilege escalation paths to downstream resources that are potentially accessible by an attacker if the exposure is exploited.
