Portlets are organized by types and subtypes. Depending upon the type and subtype, the portlet has different capabilities, and there are different input parameters available when you create or edit it.

The portlet types are:

  • Events: Displays event information from the Carbon Black App Control database, such as the number of blocked file executions over a period of time or alerts that have been triggered.
  • Baseline Drift: Displays the results of baseline drift analysis, such as daily drift of software from a baseline or a list of the computers with the greatest deviation from the baseline.
  • Computers: Displays information available from the Carbon Black App Control Server about the computers on your system, such as the number of computers running each operating system or the number of computers at each Enforcement Level.
  • Files: Shows information about the files on agent-managed computers, such as the number of newly seen files over time or the category (browsers, utilities, messaging, and so on) of the files on the system.
  • Other: Can display an RSS feed or information from another URL or HTML pages that you provide. This category includes unique system-created action portlets such as the emergency lockdown button, or combinations of different types of information from your Carbon Black App Control database.
