Offline computers
Shows the number of computers that have not connected to the Panda Security cloud for a number of days. These
computers might be susceptible to security problems and require attention.

Outdated protection
These computers might be vulnerable to attacks from threats.
An indicator that is highly likely to be a cyberattack. These are generally attacks in early stages or in exploit phase. These
attacks do not normally use malware, as adversaries usually use the operating system’s own tools to execute the attack
and thereby hide the traces of their activity.
