# Manage tasks in a Major Security Incident

The Task tab enables you to track and manage all the tasks associated with a major security incident from the MSIM workspace. You can view the various tasks using the default Visual Task Board \(Kanban view\) or the List view.

The sn\_msi.workspace\_manager can do the following on the Tasks tab:

-   Create a task
-   Modify tasks
-   View and assign tasks to self or others
-   Delete tasks

**Note:** Make sure you have installed the **MSIM VTB Task Card: 1.0.1v** app separately after installing the MSIM app.

The Tasks tab displays the details of all the tasks associated with a major security incident. The Task tab supports two views:

-   **Visual Task Board \(Kanban view\)**:

    View and update multiple task records, which appear as cards on the Visual Task Board that can be moved between lanes based on the status of the tasks in the major security incident.
