What kind of web traffic information does the ES Web intelligence dashboard analyze?

The ES Web intelligence dashboard focuses on analyzing user agents and notable HTTP categories to gather insights about web traffic. User agents provide information about the browser and operating system used by the client, which can help identify trends such as the popularity of different browsers or operating systems among users. Notable HTTP categories relate to the classification of web requests, enabling the identification of potentially harmful or suspicious traffic based on the type of HTTP activity being performed.

By tracking user agents and categorizing HTTP requests, the dashboard can reveal patterns that may suggest security risks or opportunities for optimization. This analysis is crucial for cybersecurity defense as it allows security analysts to better understand the nature of the web traffic that their systems are handling and to identify any anomalies that may warrant further investigation. The dashboard’s focus on these specific data points makes it an essential tool for monitoring web activity and reinforcing the overall security posture of an organization.
