    Just because those computers are shown as Top Sources of attack does not mean that they are infected right now.

    Its possible that the infection was taken care of automatically. You can enable risk tracing on the clients to have more enhanced information from the clients.

    Best,

    The above reports is for Network threat protection, which is a firewall kind of thing.

    when network threat attacks happen they always have a source from where they are comming.

    may be a network traffic you can imagine..

    top sources of attack [Used for tracing Network Attacks]

    It can have information about the MAC spoofing attempts. Reverse DNS Lookups, TCP Resequencing attacks , these are listed under your top network attacks.
