Paubox blog: HIPAA compliant email made easy

Diving deeper into admin panel charts

Written by Hoala Greevy | May 27, 2019
The Paubox Admin Panel gives customer admins the ability to view realtime charts on:
  • Encrypted Email (Outbound stats)
  • Inbound Security (Inbound stats)
  • Secure Email API (Outbound stats)

 

The Inbound Security Chart allows admins to view the following email categories:
  • Legit
  • Spam
  • Virus
  • Phish

 

For larger customers who have purchased Inbound Security and receive tens of thousands of legitimate email per day, you can hide the "Legit" mail category to see the other categories better, and understand how Paubox is working to secure your inbox. Here's how.

Hiding legit mail from the Inbound Mail Chart view

After logging in to the Paubox Admin Panel, use the left menu pane to look for Inbound, then click on Statistics beneath it. You'll see a chart similar to the one below.

Next, hover your mouse over the green legit chart legend. Your cursor will change from a pointer into a hand, which lets you know this is a clickable option.

Seen Screenshot 2 below as an example.   Screenshot 2: Mouse hovering over legit Mail chart legend

Click on "legit" once to hide the mail stats in that category from view. You'll then see the rest of your email categories automatically resize accordingly. For example, you can see in the screenshot below ( Screenshot 3) that the Y-axis now has a top value of 70. The preceding screenshot ( Screenshot 2) had a Y-axis value of 40,000.

You can of course hide multiple chart categories from view. For example, Screenshot 4 below shows you what it would look like if you hid both legit and spam mail categories (note the line through the category name to show it's hidden).

Hovering your mouse over bar charts

Lastly, you can also hover your mouse over a respective bar chart to see its actual number. For example, Screenshot 5 below shows that 66 phishing attacks were stopped for a customer on Wednesday, 22 May 2019.

Changing time frames

You can also use the Admin Panel Charts to look at longer time frames. The following time frames are available for view for Inbound and Outbound Mail Charts:
  • Last 7 Days (default view)
  • Last 4 Weeks
  • Last 6 Months
  • Last 12 Months

You can see how it easy it is to do via Screenshot 6 below.

Naturally, you can also hide mail categories for each respective time frame view. For example, Screenshot 7 below displays a 4 week view with legit mail hidden.
