Alert Rules trigger notifications when compliance and risk scores fall outside specified thresholds.
An Alert Rule consists of:
Compliance and risk score thresholds;
Assessments of interest;
Entities of interest (or specific dynamic groups);
Controls of interest;
Recipient list; and
Options.
When an assessment, entity, or control triggers an alert rule, recipients will receive an email notification. Recipients can be specified by name, by team, or by role (such as Primary Owner).
You can view alert rules on the Assessments > Notifications and Alerts menu only if you have the Assessments View and Tenant Configure permissions. Creating, modifying, or deleting an alert rule requires you to have the Assessments View, Tenant Configure, and Alert Rule Manage permissions. When you have these permissions, you can manage any alert rule irrespective of the ownership.
