CONNECTION REPORT
The Connection Report provides statistical information on connections made and released by RiskFilter. It
includes connection data relating to real-time blacklist, block host, directory attack, reverse DNS lookup
and connection limit, as well as attachment scanning, SPF and SMTP delay.
RiskFilter automatically lists the top 10 IP addresses accepted and rejected as well as the number of
connections and the size of data sent through respective IP addresses.

• Query the number of connections made and released on the current date, or alternatively, over a
