### Cumulative Event Growth

This chart shows the cumulative growth of your events in Flare over time. This means each month the number of events will grow, because each new event is being added ***on top*** of your historical events.

The percentage on top of each column indicated the percent change as compared to the previous time frame.

You can consider this chart a representation of your overall exposure, helping you track the growth of your exposure footprint over time and ensure it remains manageable. It highlights any unexpected spikes or dips. For further insights, you can refer to [“What Can Explain an Increase in Events?”](https://docs.flare.io/dashboard#HG_D2) to understand potential reasons and learn how to address them.

### Remediated and Ignored Events

This chart shows the total number of events you have remediated and ignored within a given time frame. This is ***not cumulative, ***therefore it is representative of the months, weeks, or days you have selected to view using the date filters.

This chart helps you assess whether you're effectively managing event growth. Ideally, you’ll see the number of remediated and ignored events remain steady or increase as your team addresses incidents.
