Understanding Cloudflare Email Security’s Reporting and Analytics

Access your detailed reports through the Cloudflare dashboard. Navigate to the “Email Security” section. You’ll find a variety of metrics readily available.

Focus on these key areas for actionable insights:

Metric Description Actionable Insight
Blocked Threats Number of emails blocked due to malicious content or sender reputation. Identify prevalent threat types (e. g., phishing, malware) to refine your security policies. High numbers might indicate a need for stricter filtering rules.
Delivered Emails Number of emails successfully delivered to your recipients. Track email deliverability. A low percentage suggests issues with sender authentication (SPF, DKIM, DMARC) or your email infrastructure.
Quarantined Emails Number of emails held for review due to suspicion. Regularly review quarantined emails. False positives can disrupt communication. Improve your email filtering rules to reduce quarantines.
Suspicious Senders List of senders flagged for suspicious activity. Investigate these senders. Add trusted senders to your allowlist and block known malicious senders.
Threat Types Breakdown of blocked threats by category (e. g., spam, phishing, malware). Understand the types of threats targeting your organization. This data helps prioritize security improvements.

Utilize the data visualization tools to quickly understand trends. Cloudflare’s email security reports provide granular data, enabling precise adjustments to your security posture. Regularly monitoring these reports helps maintain a robust email security strategy.
