What’s changing
We’re making some updates to the
alert center for G Suite. The new features will make it easier to find, collaborate, and take action on potential issues within your domain. Specifically you can now:
- Assign alerts to other team members or yourself
- Manage and track alert workflow status
- Prioritize alert triage and investigations by severity
- See related alerts for the same user
- Add new search attributes
- See alert change history
- Find and manage alerts more easily
Some of the updates were previously
available in beta and are now generally available. Read more about these changes below.
Who’s impacted
Admins only
Why you’d use it
The alert center already provides a single place to see notifications about potential issues within your domain and take action to resolve the issues. We hope these enhancements will make it easier to use the alert center, make it easier to find important and actionable alerts, and improve collaboration between admins and related teams.
How to get started
Additional details
- Set status, assignee, and severity of alerts: Add key information to help your team take ownership of, assess, and collaborate as you work through security investigations.
