# Risk heat map

The **Risk Heat Map** shows the location of high-risk events on a world map.

You can use the **Risk Heat Map** to determine where high-risk transactions have originated. The circles vary in size according to the number of high-risk transactions in that area.

To access the **Risk Heat Map**, go to **Monitoring > Threat Protection**.

Click on a circle or use the scroll function to zoom in on a location.

The drill-down table shows more detailed information about each high-risk event, such as the IP address and the target application.

Only events with an overall risk level of High are shown.

Scroll to the right to see additional columns. Learn more about using the filtered search bar in [Filtered searching](p1_protect_dashboard.html#section_dpy_gqs_h4b).

Zooming in on a location filters the results on the drill-down table. You can click a column header to sort the results by that value. Results are sorted by the **Time** column by default, with the most recent entries listed first.
