Routine Security Alert Management
Respond to security alerts by tracking and managing mitigation
efforts and take preventive steps before an attack occurs.

Regularly monitor the notes added to
the Alert Events list for the high-level security alerts you’re
tracking. This is an efficient way for team members to coordinate
efforts and check on the status.

Review low-severity alerts on a daily basis. Select the ones
that you find acceptable and resolve them all with a few simple
clicks as explained in the previous section.
On a weekly or monthly basis, download all the alerts and all
the resolved alerts. Use the data there to make a status report
to show what your team has done.
In addition to reacting to alerts that already occurred, you can proactively address
vulnerabilities before an attack takes place. On DashboardsSecurity Dashboard, check the Active Vulnerabilities to Date entry in the Risk panel.

Click Active Vulnerabilities to Date to open the VulnerabilitiesAll Vulnerabilities page.
By default, the IoT Security portal sorts vulnerabilities by
severity, displaying the most severe vulnerabilities first. When
you click a vulnerability name, the Vulnerability Details page for
it opens. There you can see which devices are vulnerable so you
can take steps to remove the vulnerability before it’s exploited
in an attack.
