PingID Administration Guide

The PingID dashboard

The PingID dashboard enables you to analyze the use of multi-factor authentication (MFA) in your organization. It improves security by providing insights into usage and entry statistics, and it can pickup potential risks, anomalies, user trends, and roll-out progress.

To view the PingID dashboard, open the Admin portal and navigate to DASHBOARD → PingID.

Click any of the dashboard charts for a more detailed display with filters.

A couple of points to take into account when viewing the data displayed in the charts:

  • Data refresh rate is subject to a 15-minute delay.

  • Data displayed on the SMS/Voice chart is based on SMS and voice calls sent by the Twilio service. Data is aggregated based on Twilio report logs and represented with an approximation of the cost. So there may be some differences between chart data and the final billing amount.

The following sections provide details about each of the chart types.

  • User status and devices

  • Authentications by type

  • Enrollments

  • SMS and voice

  • Risk

User status and devices

The User Status chart displays user status information for the specified time period. The Users Devices chart can display either the distribution of the paired devices in the organization by authentication method, or the distribution of the versions of the PingID mobile app that users have installed.

User Status

User status chart

The user status chart includes four statuses:

Active

The user’s PingID account is created, and the user has completed registration and paired the account with a device. The user can perform any of the permitted PingID functions.

Inactive

The administrator created the user’s PingID account but either the account is not yet activated, or an activation message and code was sent but the activation code has expired.

Pending

The user account was activated, but no device was paired for the user. This is a combination of Pending Activation and Pending Change Device in PingID User Detailed Status Report fields.

Suspended

The administrator suspended this user’s ability to be authenticated by PingID. This may occur, for example, for security reasons if a user can’t find the registered device.

User Devices
