For the Reports Portal

This release includes the following enhancements and changes for the Reports Portal:

Migration Tool to Bring ArcSight Logger Reports into the ArcSight Platform

Reporting is an essential tool for communicating the state of your network security to internal and external stakeholders. Logger reports (captured views or summaries of events encountered by your system) play an integral role in indicating the overall health of your organization's network.

To help you switch to the ArcSight Platform from ArcSight Logger, we now provide you with a tool to migrate your Logger reports.

Introducing NERC Compliance Reporting for ArcSight Recon

This release introduces compliance reporting for NERC (North American Electric Reliability Corporation), which is essential for owners, operators, and users of bulk power systems in the United States and Canada who must comply with NERC standards. The ArcSight Recon Compliance Pack for NERC includes 16 dashboards that help you monitor the health of your bulk power system and ensure NERC compliance.

Three of these dashboards are overview dashboards that use ESM correlated events to provide a high-level perspective of your system's health and compliance. For example, the NERC Insights dashboard shown below enables you to quickly identify areas in need of action. You can drill into the different widgets, such as Configuration Changes, then determine which assets are out of compliance.

For more information, see Ensuring Compliance with NERC Standards in the User's Guide to the ArcSight Platform CE 24.2.

Note: Certain dashboards in this package require ArcSight ESM and ArcSight ESM Unified NERC CIP to populate.

Each of the dashboards below has been organized by their corresponding NERC control number, such as 005.
