The Sensors page enables you to add new sensors Sensors are deployed into an on-premises, cloud, or multi-cloud environment to collect logs and other security-related data. This data is normalized and then securely forwarded to USM Anywhere for analysis and correlation., configure the deployed sensors, delete and redeploy sensors, and edit a sensor for modifying the name or description. Go to Data Sources > Sensors to open the Sensors main page. The page displays the list of sensors you have deployed in your environment.

The following table lists the default columns in the Sensors page.

Sensors Running on an Outdated Version of USM Anywhere

USM Anywhere doesn't support sensors running on an outdated version of USM Anywhere. When USM Anywhere identifies a configured sensor running on an outdated version, a yellow announcement displays to warn you about it. See Configure Network Interfaces for On-Premises Sensors to confirm that the sensor on an outdated version meets the proper requirements and contact LevelBlue Technical Support for assistance.
