  6. After enforcing these changes, you can troubleshoot the results in the network.

    • To verify the results in the network, go to Reports > Logs > AI Risk Log. For more information, see SecureEdge Logs.

Risk scores indicate the potential risk of each AI application. A score above 15 is classified as high risk. Administrators can edit any application's risk score; edited scores override previous ones. A block recommendation appears only when the score exceeds 15 (high risk).
