Alarms

Prev Next

Notify users of an event or flow that they might want to investigate. An alarm is composed of two parts - the conditions that trigger it and the actions that Trellix ESM takes when the alarm is triggered.

Build alarms

Before you create alarms, make sure that your environment contains the following building blocks:

  • Alarm message templates

  • Message recipient groups

  • Mail server connection

  • Alarm audio files

  • Alarm reports queue

  • Visible alarms pane on the dashboard

Tip

Numerous alarms that trigger frequently can create distracting noise for analysts. Focus on creating alarms that escalate only critical events.
