The Web Content Discovery: Devices page is accessed through Reports > Web Content Discovery > Devices and provides a comprehensive view of the web content activity associated with specific devices on an organization’s networks. The page displays details about the traffic, such as the device name, user, total number of categories, and total number of requests. The page allows sorting data to determine which kinds of web content are associated with a device.

An organization can use this information to identify potential threats and take steps to protect the network from potential attacks. The organization can also use this information to identify user activities and ensure that only authorized users are accessing the web content.
