Reports

After the malware has been analyzed, the Malware Analysis appliance can generate alert reports based on the results of the malware analysis. The Alert Details report is the only type of customized report that can be generated and delivered automatically on a schedule from the Reports page. Reports can be produced with Concise, Normal, or Extended level of detail. When the report is generated, the Malware Analysis appliance places a copy of the report in the data/reports directory. You can copy the report to your local machine. The report can be generated and delivered automatically through email. The reports are removed when the reports directory exceeds the size of 100 MB.
