10.4 Gauging trends in security measure evaluation

Statistics representing trends in the status of security measures can be checked on a group-by-group basis. From the Client Security Management window, you can search for the following three types of statistics:

• Evaluation points
  Trends in the evaluation points indicating the results of evaluation of security measures.
  
• Countermeasure usage
  Trends in the proportion of clients whose safety level was judged to be safe for the judgment items specified in a judgment policy. These judgment items may relate to security updates, anti-virus programs, or other information.
  
• User definition countermeasure usage
  Trends in the proportion of clients whose safety level was judged to be safe for the judgment items specified in a user definition.
  

The results of your search for evaluation points, countermeasure usage, or user definition countermeasure usage can be displayed as a graph or output to a CSV file. For countermeasure usage, trends can be checked for a particular judgment item. By displaying a graph that shows trends in security measures over time, you can judge whether a problem with security measures is a short-term or long-term problem.

This feature can be used by an Asset Information Manager administrator, CSC administrator, or CSC user.

Countermeasure usage and user definition countermeasure usage are statistics representing the proportion of clients whose security level was judged to be safe. User definition countermeasure usage calculates countermeasure usage for each of the judgment items in a user-defined judgment policy.

The formula used to calculate countermeasure usage and user definition countermeasure usage is as follows:

Note

The decimal part is truncated to two decimal places.

The following figure gives an overview of statistics.
