Understanding Behavior Analytics: Hits, Visits, and Sessions

In Behavior analytics, “Hits,” “Visits,” and “Sessions” are fundamental metrics that build on each other. Here’s an explanation that reflects their interrelated nature:

Hits

Definition: A ‘Hit’ refers to any record stored for a unique user interaction with a website.
Details: This includes every element (like images, JavaScript files, Cascading Style Sheets (CSS), embedded objects) loaded or interacted with on a webpage. Each element counts as a separate ‘Hit’. Notably, these elements might not always be loaded from the website’s primary domain; often, they are served from another domain, such as a Content Delivery Network (CDN), which is common for media files and scripts.
Example: Loading a single web page that includes five images and two JavaScript files from a CDN, along with one CSS file from the primary domain, would result in eight hits.

Visits

Definition: A ‘Visit’ represents each individual interaction a user has while on a website or online application.
Details: This is measured by user actions that lead to new page loads or significant interactions within the same page. Each distinct action, like a click leading to a new page or a notable change on the current page, is counted as a separate visit.
Example: A user clicks on a link to open a new page, and then another link to visit a different section, with each action counted as an individual visit.

Sessions

Definition: A ‘Session’ encompasses a series of visits by a user within a specific timeframe.
Details: It begins when a user first accesses a website or application and ends after a period of inactivity or user logout. A session includes all visits (and therefore, all hits) made during that period.
Example: A user visits a website, browsing through different pages (each page view is a visit), and then logs into an online application. All the activities, including website browsing and interactions within the online application until the user logs out or becomes inactive, constitute a single session.

v9.6.4.b Release Notes for Cyfin

Category: Release Notes

Enhancements

Visualizer
- Added support for Microsoft defender reporting.

Corrections

- Data Management
  - Syslog
    - Corrected issue that could cause direct syslog imports to stop working upon a service restart. The file writer continued to work, just the metric server stop receiving the data directly. This was caused by the syslog server attempting to start before the importer had been initialized.
- Visualizer
  - Corrected aggregation on nested fields

Defender Data Source Field Definitions

Category: Visualizer

An incident in Microsoft 365 Defender is a collection of correlated alerts and associated data that make up the story of an attack.

Microsoft 365 services and apps create alerts when they detect a suspicious or malicious event or activity. Individual alerts provide valuable clues about a completed or ongoing attack. However, attacks typically employ various techniques against different types of entities, such as devices, users, and mailboxes. The result is multiple alerts for multiple entities in your tenant.

Because piecing the individual alerts together to gain insight into an attack can be challenging and time-consuming, Microsoft 365 Defender automatically aggregates the alerts and their associated information into an incident.
