About the All Security Events Page

To access this page, click Monitoring > Security Events > All Events.

Use this page to get an overall, high‐level view of your network environment. You can view abnormal events, attacks, viruses, or worms when log data is correlated and analyzed.

This page provides administrators with an advanced filtering mechanism and provides visibility into actual events collected by the Log Collector. Using the time-range slider, you can instantly focus on areas of unusual activity by dragging the time slider to the area of interest to you. The slider and the Custom button under Time Range remain at the top of each tab. Users select the time range, and then they can decide how to view the data, using the summary view or detail view tabs.

Tasks You Can Perform

You can perform the following tasks from this page:

  • View a brief summary of all events in your network. See Summary View.

  • View the comprehensive details of events in a tabular format that includes sortable columns. See Detail View.

Summary View

You can view a brief summary of all the events in your network. At the center of the page is critical information, including total number of events, viruses found, total number of interfaces that are down, number of attacks, CPU spikes, and system reboots. This data is refreshed automatically based on the selected time range. At the bottom of the page is a swim lane view of different events that are happening at a specific time. The events include firewall, web filtering, VPN, content filtering, antispam, antivirus, and IPS. Each event is color‐coded, with darker shades representing a higher level of activity. Each tab provides deep information like type, and number of events occurring at that specific time.
