Application risk meter

The firewall calculates scores based on the risk level and number of hits of individual applications. The application risk meter is based on the average score of all application traffic.

When the meter is closer to the red mark, the network traffic includes more high-risk applications, indicating a high risk of compromise. When the meter is closer to the green mark, the network traffic includes more low-risk applications, indicating a low risk of compromise.

Note

Reports show the risk level and number of hits of individual applications.
