Custom reports allow you to extract
specific, actionable intelligence from your firewall logs by filtering for the exact
attributes and metrics relevant to your organization. Rather than sifting through
standard datasets, you can define unique report parameters—such as specific
application usage, high-risk user behavior, or targeted threat categories—to
streamline your auditing and compliance workflows.
To maximize operational efficiency, these reports can be generated on-demand for
immediate troubleshooting or scheduled to run automatically (for example, every
night). Scheduling ensures that critical data is ready for review at the start of
each business day, providing a consistent snapshot of network health and security
trends without manual intervention.
- Create custom reports based on threat categories to receive information about specific types of threats that the firewall has detected.
- Select reports to add a new custom report or modify an existing one.Choose the Database to use as the source for the custom report—in this case, select Threat from either of the two types of database sources, summary databases and Detailed logs. Summary database data is condensed to allow a faster response time when generating reports. Detailed logs take longer to generate but provide an itemized and complete set of data for each log entry.In the Query Builder, add a report filter with the Attribute Threat Category and in the Value field, select a threat category on which to base your report.To test the new report settings, click Run Now.Click OK to save the report.
