Accessing Alerts from Email Notifications

During an Electronic Update or the daily Library Refresh, a vulnerability alert is generated for each new security vulnerability mapped to a published inventory item. An email listing the new alerts for a given impacted project is then automatically sent to the Project Contact of the impacted project. Hyperlinks within the email enable the Project Contact to open Code Insight or an advisory web site to view additional information about a given alert and take necessary action.

Email alerts are issued only if your email server is enabled and configured for Code Insight. For more information, see “Configuring an Email Server” in the Installation & Configuration Guide.
