Cloud portal dashboards
Click Dashboard in the cloud portal toolbar to see a snapshot view of how the cloud service is performing. It includes the following tabs:
*
The Threat Dashboard appears when you first access this page. It shows information about suspicious activity that may be related to malware threats in your network. See Threat Dashboard.
*
The Bandwidth Dashboard shows information about traffic patterns in your network, including the categories, groups, and users consuming the most bandwidth. See Bandwidth Dashboard.
*
The Productivity Dashboard shows information about blocked requests, and activity in social media categories. See Productivity Dashboard.
*
The Cloud Apps Dashboard shows information about cloud app usage, by category and risk level. See Cloud Apps Dashboard.
*
The Data Security Dashboard shows information about potential data leaks in your organization. See Data Security Dashboard.
You can also add your own Creating custom dashboards in the cloud portal.
Drag a tab to re-order it on the page.
If you do not wish to see all of the standard dashboards, you can click the Settings icon in the top right corner and select Hide Current Dashboard. Click Continue to confirm. You can restore hidden dashboards at a later time by using the Settings > Unhide Dashboard option.
Each dashboard includes the following features:
*
A number of charts that provide detailed web activity information. Most dashboard charts can be customized to change their display format (for example stacked column, area chart, line chart, bar chart, or pie chart). On most charts, you can click the Maximize button () to see a larger version in a popup window. You can also click columns or sections on a chart to drill down to the relevant report in the Report Builder (see Using the Report Builder).
For more information on the available charts, see the sections for the individual dashboard tabs.
*
A summary statistic in the top left that covers web activity relevant to the current dashboard over a defined time period (the last day by default). The selected time period relates to both the number in the summary statistic, and the range displayed in the dashboard charts. You can select a different time period from the drop-down list: the alternative options are 1 hour, 4 hours, 8 hours, 12 hours, 3 days, 5 days, and 7 days.
*
One or more filters that define the range of content shown in the charts. To edit a filter:
a.
Click the filter name. On the popup that appears, use the drop-down list to define how the filter handles the values that you specify. The options available depend on the filter type. For example, you may be able to include or exclude values, or state that search terms contain or do not contain your text.
b.
Enter or select the search term or values that you wish to filter on. Depending on the filter, you can:
*
Select one or more check boxes
*
Start typing text that will autocomplete based on data in the system
*
Enter the exact text that you want to use
For filters where you are including or excluding values already stored in the system, start typing to see a list of potential matches, then select the option you want from the list. You can add multiple values to the filter.
For filters where you enter free text, enter the terms you want separated by commas.
c.
Click OK when done.
If you change the filters and then wish to revert to the default All filter, click Reset. Filters apply to individual dashboard tabs, so, for example, editing the filters on the Threats tab has no effect on the Productivity tab.
The dashboard is automatically refreshed whenever you make a change, such as editing the filters. You can also click the Refresh button in the top right corner to force the charts to refresh.

Charts provide details of potential data loss whether Data Protection Service or DLP Lite (Data Security) is used to enforce policies. However, data returned to the cloud proxy by Data Protection Service does not include values for each field that may be included in the charts. Use Forcepoint DLP to view and report on incidents not included in the dashboard. See Viewing Incidents and Reports for more information.
