Every Vitrium Security account comes equipped with a rich set of content analytics, available as a graphical dashboard in the DASHBOARD tab or as detailed, exportable reports in the REPORTS tab.
If you are a legacy customer, the cumulative analytics data for your account starts from November 2015 onwards when the new feature was implemented. If you subscribed to Vitrium Security after November 2015, the analytics data starts from either the day you started a free trial the day your production environment went live.
Table of Contents
4.1 Dashboard
The dashboard is a graphical representation of the top 5 or bottom 5 of something (content, users, applications, and so on) within a given time period. You can drill in on any graph to show all the data in the report, or you can drill in on a specific file or user to only show data for that particular file or user.
DASHBOARD GRAPHS
Depending on which Vitrium Security edition you subscribe to will determine which graphs you have access to. Furthermore, some of the graphs with page-level or time-detailed information only shows data for the secured web version of the content, not the protected PDF version. This is due to limitations in Adobe Reader and how analytical data is collected over the web. The graphs that only show data with the web viewer content are indicated with an * asterix below.

DATE RANGE
By default, the date range shows the current month but you can click on the Date button to change this to a specific DAY, MONTH, YEAR or a RANGE of time.
MENU ICONS
There several different icons that you’ll see on each graph, each with their own unique function.
4.2 Reports
There is a wealth information collected from users accessing your protected content. The Dashboard shows the top 5 or least 5 of something, whereas the Reports show all the applicable data, in the given time period that is selected. Depending on which Vitrium Security edition you subscribe to will determine which reports you have access to. Much like the dashboard graphs, some of the reports with page-level or time-detailed information only shows data for the secured web version of the content, not the protected PDF version. This is due to limitations in Adobe Reader and how analytical data is collected over the web. The reports that only show data with the web viewer content are indicated with an * asterix below:

The date range for all other Reports appears the same as in the Dashboard with a large blue button that shows the current month but if you click on the Date button, you can change this to a specific DAY, MONTH, YEAR or a RANGE.

For other Reports, a different type of Filter button appears where you can filter by content type: Documents or Images or Videos (if video is enabled on your account).
EXPORT
You can EXPORT any report in Vitrium. Ensure that you have the right date range selected before you export the report especially for the User Activity Log since the default view shows all activity in the report. Once ready, click the large EXPORT button and a CSV file will download.
USER Activity Log
The User Activity Log report shows ALL user activity including for both web viewer unlocks/views and PDF unlocks/views. The report shows the date and time when a file was accessed, what the file name is, which user accessed the file, which group the user belongs to, which method they used to unlock the file (web or PDF), which IP address they used to unlock from, what their tracking ID is (a specific ID from their application or browser’s cookie), and also which application or browser was used, what version, and what operating system they used. If there was an error, an error code would show in the error column and the whole activity would appear in red. Successful unlocks would appear in green, failed unlocks in red, and user activity that has been cleared by the Clear Use function would appear in a light gray color.
