The following methods provide access to the Alerts dialog, which allows you to view and manage the security vulnerability alerts impacting inventory in a given project:
• | From Email Notifications |
• | From Analysis Workbench |
• | From Project Inventory |
Project Owners can be alerted via email to any projects and inventory items that contain new security vulnerabilities so that they can be reviewed and acted upon if necessary. For email alerts to be sent, the email server must be enabled and configured. For more information, see “Configuring an Email Server” in the Installation & Configuration Guide.
Vulnerability alert emails are sent as part of the Electronic Update. A vulnerability alert is generated for each new security vulnerability mapped to a published inventory item. While viewing the alert email, click any of the hyperlinked text in the email to open FlexNet Code Insight or an advisory web site to view additional information about the alert.
