You can explore and investigate alerts and machines to quickly determine if, where, and when suspicious activities occurred in your network to help you understand the context they appeared in.

From the Security operations dashboard you will see aggregated events to facilitate the identification of significant events or behaviors on a machine. You can also drill down into granular events and low-level indicators.

It also has clickable tiles that give visual cues on the overall health state of your organization. Each tile opens a detailed view of the corresponding overview.

Active alerts

You can view the overall number of active alerts from the last 30 days in your network from the tile. Alerts are grouped into New and In progress.
