Event Rules
Configure notifications for critical events across your attack surface.
Event Rules (formerly Alerts) allow you to define when and how you'll be notified of important changes and findings. You can configure rules to send notifications via email, trigger actions in integrated tools like Jira and Slack, or send webhooks to your own applications.
Setting up event rules
Event rules are highly configurable. To add an event rule, go to Events > Event Rules and click the + icon. Give your event rule a name.
Each rule consists of two parts:
Rules that determine which events will trigger notifications
Actions that define how you'll be notified
Add rules
You can configure multiple conditions to determine which events will trigger your actions:
You can filter the rules that will trigger actions for the Event Rule on:
Match Key: Only match event types with selected key(s).
Match Tag: Only match events for targets having the selected tag(s).
Exclude Tag: Exclude events for targets with the selected tag(s).
Issue Severity: For issue events, only match issues with the selected severity.
Target: Only match events related to the selected target(s).
Host: Only match events with the selected host(s).
Options: Additional filtering criteria including:
Require CISA KEV: Only include issues designated as Known Exploited Vulnerabilities by CISA.
