1.2.5.2.3 Alert Screen

The Alert Screen is used to view, assign, edit and change the state of alerts. In this screen, you view the details of one alert at a time from your list of currently active alerts. Your currently active alert list contains all the alerts which were returned by the filter that you selected in the Browser screen or in the Filter screen.

  • The Navigation Bar, at the top of the screen, allows you to move between the alerts in your list, to return to your list of alerts, or to move to the case associated with the current alert.

  • The Summary Pane, on the left of the screen, displays an overview of the selected alert, and provides controls for editing the alert.

  • The Results Pane, on the right of the screen, is split into an upper and a lower area. The upper area displays the alerts associated with the alert, and the lower area displays the history of the alert.

Entering the Alert Screen

You can enter the Alert screen by:

  • Double-clicking on an alert in the results panel of either the Browser screen or the Filter screen. The Alert screen will open with the alert you double-clicked as the selected alert.

  • Double-clicking on an associated alert in the Case screen. The Alert screen will open with the case you double-clicked as the selected case.

Navigation Bar

The Navigation bar contains several different controls, as described in the table:

The Summary pane is divided into three sections:

  • The Available Actions section contains the controls for editing the alert. The controls available may appear different to the ones shown here, because they depend on the state of the alert and your security permissions.
