Events

Cisco Cyber Vision provides many events significant to network security, especially the events which relate to the industrial activity (such as New program downloaded/uploaded, New start/stop CPU command, New init command, etc.). Many other events related to vulnerabilities, comparison results, sensors activity, etc. are also available.

Go to Admin > Events to see all available Events. See the Cisco Cyber Vision Administration Guide.

The Events interface provides high visibility on events with the following two views:

  • Dashboard: Shows a visual and continuously-updated view of the current state of the installation, based on the number of events (by severity and over time).

  • Calendar: Shows a chronological and continuously-updated view of the events within which you can search events.

The Dashboard

The Dashboard shows Event doughnut and line charts. Doughnut charts show color-coded, event severity categories and percentages. You can filter the Events on Day, Week, Month or Year. Use the arrows for exact dates.

Doughnut charts present events numbers and percentages per categories and severities.
