Analysis

In the Analysis menu, you can view, search and browse through log files of each registered device. You can also view and generate reports. The Analysis menu also includes the e-Discovery tab, which allows you to search for email messages.

The FortiGuard Analysis server can store all log files, such as content logs and traffic logs. This server is a device that stores log files, similar to a FortiAnalyzer unit or Syslog server.

Reports are automatically provided for each device and can be generated from the Report tab. Generated reports are provided as PDF files. Reports display the gathered log data in bar and pie graphs within the PDF file.

Reports help you to:

view network usage and patterns to make informed decisions

discover and address vulnerabilities across dispersed device installations

minimize the effort required to identify attack patterns when customizing policies to prevent attacks

monitor Internet surfing patterns for compliance with your company policy

identify your web site visitors for potential customers.

The e-Discovery tab allows you to configure a detailed search for specific email messages. The e-Discovery tab also provides access for third-party users, who have the e-Discovery role profile, to view specific email messages and to search for specific email messages
