Assign Incidents to Another Administrator

Use Bulk Incident to assign a group of incidents to another Data Security administrator or assign incidents individually.
Sometimes you don’t have the proper context around the content or the collaborators to properly assess incidents. In these cases, you can assign a single incident or group of incidents to another administrator (a compliance officer, for example) who is more familiar with the content and its proper use.
Additionally, you can add notes to the asset to provide the administrator additional instructions. Similarly, the administrator to which you assign the incident can add notes to the asset to communicate assessment details and reason for incident status change.
You must be an administrator with a Super Admin, Admin, or Limited Admin role to assign incidents to another administrator.
