Generate a Discovery Report

A discovery report is generated by taking DNS queries and VPC flow logs that have been sent to an S3 bucket prior to getting processed by the Multicloud Defense Controller.

Procedure

Step 1

In the Multicloud Defense Controller page, navigate to Reports > Discovery.

Step 2

Under Threat & Cloud Analytics Report, select the Frequency from the drop-down list for the data that is pulled: daily, weekly, monthly, quarterly, or yearly.

  • Daily - From 12 a.m. for 24 hours. This is in UTC time.

  • Weekly - From Monday to Sunday.

  • Monthly - Generally from the beginning to the end of the month.

  • Quarterly - From the beginning to end of a quart. Quarters are generally defined as from January 1 - March 31, April 1 - June 30, July 1 - September 30, and October 1 - December 31.

  • Yearly - From January 1 to December 31 of the year selected.

Step 3

Select a date. Use the drop-down Calendar to select the time range or specific days that you want to collect data on. Days that are grayed out have no data to compile. If you have no data available to generate a report, confirm your policies contain WAF and IDS/IPS rules.

Step 4

Click Generate Report. The Discovery Report is generated in a new tab.

Step 5

To save the report locally, click Print Report. Navigate to a location on your local server and save the report.
