Alerts by Policy Types & Top Policies By Alerts

Click on a color in the circle graph to review a filtered list of policies by type. The largest colored portion of the circle indicates the highest number of alerts generated for the corresponding policy type. The Top Policies by Alerts list further details the number of alerts generated for each policy.

From any of the above screens, click on the policy name in the far left column to review policy information and/or make changes to policy conditions.

Click on a hyperlinked number in the Alerts/Tasks column, and you'll see a list of alerts associated with a specific policy, each of which can be drilled down into further detail.
