Active Directory reports

The Active Directory module of the Content Pack for Windows Dashboards and Reports contains several reports that let you view common security issues within Active Directory.

There are six groups of reports:

DNS reports

DNS reports are generated on your DNS operations and by running real-time searches against the collected DNS data.

In order to view these statistics, your DNS servers must have debug logging enabled. If this feature is not turned on, then these reports will be blank.

The following reports are available:
