## About the Account summary information

The Account summary information relies on historical data processing that updates once a day, overnight. The data reported is accurate up to the previous day. It does not show live, real-time traffic for the current day.

The top of the Account summary page contains summary cards which display key performance indicators alongside trend analysis: 

> **HINT:** Use the time selector in the top left to change the time range being reported on all of the cards.

- **Total bandwidth:** the total amount of bandwidth served across all services in your account.
- **Origin offload:** the total amount of bandwidth offloaded from your origin,. 
- **DDoS attacks mitigated:** the total number of DDoS attacks detected and mitigated.
- **WAF attacks blocked:** the total number of attacks detected and blocked by the Next-Gen WAF before reaching your application.

## About the product summary information
