various options, which vary between each log.

Security Log
The Security Log records potentially threatening activity directed towards your device, such
as port scanning, or denial of service attacks. The Security Log is probably the most
important log file in the Agent.
Icons for the Security Log
When you open a Security Log, icons are displayed at the left side of the first column. These
are graphical representations of the kind of attack logged on each line, and they provide an
easy way to scan the Security Log for possible system errors.
