Viewing OS change event distribution in a bubble chart in the Web UI

Prev Next

OS change event distribution is shown in a bubble chart by default. The larger the bubble, the more frequent the event. The number of bubbles, represented in different colors, gives you a quick sense of how many different types of OS changes have occurred. Yellow flags indicate suspicious events and red flags indicate malicious events.
