Manage Alerts

Netwrix provides a set of predefined alerts commonly used for IT infrastructure monitoring. These alerts include ones that help you detect suspicious activity and notify you about critical changes to your environment. The alerts contain pre-configured filters, and in most cases you only need to enable an alert and select who receives notifications.

You can add any elements (a dashboard, report, alert, risk, etc.) to the Auditor Home screen to access them instantly. See the Navigation and Customize Home Screen topics for additional information.
