The Network Activity report shows what’s driving your network traffic. Dive in to see who or what is using your network (users, apps, IP addresses, and countries), and the apps and sites they’re accessing and their threat exposure. This report helps you understand the traffic traversing your network, including source to destination flows, and all the users and IP addresses generating traffic. This data helps to decide if you need to refine traffic attributes (source and destination security zone, the source and destination IP address, the application, and the user) in your security rules.
The report includes:
  • insights into network activities such as the total data transfer, uploads, downloads, sessions, and the number of users initiating sessions on your network. Review the traffic logs and see if you need to refine traffic attributes in the security rules.
  • the countries from which your network traffic is originating, and the countries with the most users, apps, threats, files, URLs, sessions, and data transfer.
  • the users initiating traffic on your network, the countries, applications, threats, files, URLs, sessions, and data transfer associated with their network activity.
  • the source IP addresses from which traffic is originating on your network, and the associated countries, users, apps, threats, files, URLs, sessions, and data transfer.
