Description

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
It’s difficult to understand how different objects (like analytics, detections, techniques, etc.) are connected. Users have to manually piece together soft relationships, which can be confusing and time-consuming, especially for complex relationships.

Describe the solution you'd like
Introduce a visual graph feature that displays the immediate connections between objects. The graph should show nodes representing objects and edges representing their relationships, distinguishing between SRO's and "soft" relationships. Ideally, nodes would be clickable, allowing users to navigate directly to the view page for any object in the graph. This visualization could be added as a new sidebar section for quick access, or embedded on individual object pages to show relevant connections.

Research direction

No files, tests, or entry points are named. Start by tracing the Angular object pages and sidebar entry points to determine where the visualization belongs. Done means users can view immediate object connections, distinguish SROs from soft relationships, and navigate through clickable graph nodes.
