Create Reports

Tr-3 uses the same reporting engine as used in other SAINT products. As shown in the following example, it includes nine (9) pre-configured report types designed to quickly provide reports that will be the most useful for specific purposes.

The steps to generate a pre-configured report follow:

1. Select the Report Type that best suits your needs.
   
   For Trend Analysis reports only – Choose the number of data sets you wish to include in the trend analysis. Hosts and vulnerabilities will be tracked chronologically across the chosen number of data sets, producing history charts and status classifications.
   
   

2. Select the Report Format from the drop-down list of available formats.
   
   

• HTML is usually the best choice for quick screen analysis. This report format uses Portable Network Graphic (PNG) images to graphically display pie charts and bar graphs. It also uses HTML frames to provide a linked table of contents for report navigation.
  

• Frameless HTML is like the HTML format except that it does not provide a linked table of contents.
  

• Simple HTML displays pie charts and bar graphs in-line, not as PNG images. However, the pie charts are only viewable on Internet Explorer.
  

• PDF is the most often used and most convenient format to download and share with others.
  

• XML is useful if the Tr-3 data is to be processed by XML-enabled applications.
  

• Text is a useful alternative if you intend to view the report on a machine without a web browser.
  

• CSV is the most often used format for simple text-based content usage, viewing in Microsoft Excel and working with the raw scan results.
  

• Tab-separated and comma-separated reports are useful for importing into documents, spreadsheets, or databases. These formats are useful with the Technical Overview report.
  
  

3. Click on the Create Report button on the selected scan to create and view the report. The report will be generated and displayed in its own browser tab.
   

4. You can view, print and save scan output from the displayed report. In most browsers, this is done by choosing Save As under the File menu.
   
   Adobe Acrobat also supports these actions from within the browser window, as shown in the following example:
