Hi, I'm working on a dashboard that can display a number of security events, such as logon logoff, time of day from source etc. However I don't fully appreciate the visualise component of Kibana. My question is: has anyone been working on such a dashboard and is willing to share what they know?

To make a start I would like to be able to see:  
Access events  
Source of request  
Host  
Time  
Calculate number of logon failures  
Calculate number of logon successes  
View account names in use  
View account escalations  
Access to file shares  
location tile maps  
ssh connections

I'm using winlogbeats and filebeats feeds. Currently running v5 of winlogbeats and I can see that the data is searchable but I am not sure how to build the dashboard. If you have any info to help it would be appreciated.

Thank you
