Control Manager 5.0 allows direct queries to the Control Manager database. Data views are available to Control Manager 5.0 report templates and to Ad Hoc Query requests.
Data views are tables filled with information. Each heading in a data view acts as a column in a table. For example the Spyware/Grayware Action Result Summary has the following headings:
Action Result
Action Taken
Infection Destination Count
Infection Source Count
Virus/Malware Detection Count
As a table a data view takes the following form with potential sub-headings under each heading:
|
Action Result |
Action Taken |
Infection Destination Count |
Infection Source Count |
Virus/Malware Detection Count |
