Is there a SEP report for "Clients not Protected"?

This issue has been solved. See solution.

We are trying to find a report in SEP that tells us what clients are not protected.  This is the reason why... we have a large number of clients, and machines are constantly added and removed from our network, so it would be nice to be able to run a report that shows which clients are not protected so we can go in and install SEP.

I suppose that the green dot on the shield would tell us, but if we could get a list of clients in a report, that would be better.  Any ideas?

Thanks

Thanks all.

So it is my understanding that there is "no" pre-defined report that tells us what computers are not protected.

 Nopes ...and Unmanaged

 Nopes ...and Unmanaged Detector has high False postives rate as it will report routers and printers aswell ( however you can make exceptions for them )
So you'll have to create a report on Unmanaged detector and Offline clients to get the exact data.
