What Reports Look Like

The reports output uses tables, and graphics when appropriate. For example, some reports include a pie chart to convey meaning at a glance while still providing supporting details. As shown in the figure below, the CA Access Control Administrators report provides a pie chart of how many endpoint users are CA Access Control administrators. A high ratio of administrators to normal users may pose as security risk, so the graphic quickly shows if there is a security exposure. In this example, a large red wedge in the chart is significant because it shows that almost 1% of the current enterprise user base can perform CA Access Control administration.

The pie chart shows the percent of administrators among all users

In addition to the graphic, each report has an associated listing of the actual endpoint values. Following is a sample of this table of the CA Access Control Administrators report:
