FortiView summary list and description

In table format, many summary views display a historical chart to show changes over the selected time period. If you sort by a different column, the chart shows the history of the sorted column. For example, if you sort by Sessions Blocked/Allowed, the chart shows the history of blocked and allowed sessions. If you sort by Bytes Sent/Received, the chart shows the history of bytes sent and received.

When you drill down to view a line item, the historical chart show changes for that line item.

Summary

An overview

An overview of most used FortiView summary views. You can select which widgets to display in the Summary.

Threats

Top Threats

Lists the top threats to your network.

The following incidents are considered threats:

  • Risk applications detected by application control.
  • Intrusion incidents detected by IPS.
  • Malicious web sites detected by web filtering.
  • Malware/botnets detected by antivirus.

Note: If FortiGate is running FortiOS 5.0.x, turn on Security Profiles > Client Reputation to view entries in Top Threats.

Threat Map

Displays a map of the world that shows the top traffic destination country by color. Threats are displayed when the level is equal to or greater than warning and the source IP is a public IP address.

The list of threats at the bottom shows the location, threat, severity, and time of the attacks. The color gradient of the darts on the map indicate the traffic risk, where red indicates the more critical risk.

This view has no filtering options. See also Viewing the threat map.

Compromised Hosts

Displays end users with suspicious web use compromises, including end users’ IP addresses, overall threat rating, and number of threats.

Note: To use this feature:

  1. UTM logs of the connected FortiGate devices must be enabled.
  2. The FortiAnalyzer must subscribe to FortiGuard to keep its threat database up-to-date.
