Tips & Best Practices

  • Choose Relevant Search Terms: Too specific terms might miss results, too general ones might trigger too many notifications.
  • Use CVSS Thresholds: Set a minimum CVSS score to receive only critical vulnerabilities.
  • Organize Your Alerts: Create separate alert lists for different environments (Production, Staging, etc.).
  • Regular Review: Regularly review your alerts and deactivate alert lists that are no longer needed.
