Web Reputation Analysis

Web Reputation shows detailed information about an endpoint or group of endpoints that are protected by Web Reputation. Use the Client Information analysis to view information about each endpoint protected by a CPM client.

From the IBM BigFix Console, click Endpoint Protection on the lower-left pane. From the upper-left navigation pane, go to Core Protection Module > Analyses > Web Reputation for Mac. The following properties are available for each endpoint:

Number of Web Threats Found
The number of web threats encountered and recorded in the endpoint’s storage file.
Web Reputation Enabled/Disabled
The status of the agent’s Web Reputation feature (Enabled or Disabled).
Web Reputation Security Level
