Carbon Black Cloud: How To Determine Active License Count

Additional Notes

  • The CB Cloud Product is licensed per endpoint.
  • Any endpoint being actively protected by a CB Cloud sensor counts towards total license utilization.
  • At this time we do not currently have a fully encompassing "status" for these endpoints but they would fall under "Active","Bypass","Quarantine" and  "Errors".
  • If total license utilization is still unclear, please reach out to your Customer Success Manager or Account Manager at Carbon Black for assistance.
