Threshold Settings

A security risk meter displaying on the Summary screen and on the upper left-hand corner of the main menu indicates the network’s overall risk level based on the number of potential security risk events detected by Threat Discovery Appliance.

• The security risk meter only counts potential security risk events, not known security risks or threats.

Use threshold settings to define the number of events considered a low or critical risk.

• Critical risk: Any number that signifies a need for you to constantly monitor your network or take preventive or corrective action. This can be any value you set. Threat Discovery Appliance considers anything lower than this value as low risk.

• Low risk: Any number that signifies a need for monitoring the network. This can be any value you set. Threat Discovery Appliance considers anything lower than this value as normal network behavior.

To configure threshold settings:

• Summary

1. In the Detection Status tab, click Settings.

2. In the Low risk setting, specify the minimum number of potential security risk events per time unit considered a low risk. The default value for Low Risk is 20 events for every minute.

3. In the Critical risk setting, select the minimum number of potential security risk events for every time unit considered a critical risk. The default value for Critical Risk is 100 events for every minute.

• Trend Micro recommends adjusting the default values according to the size of your network.

4. Click Save.
