Alert Summary

Alerts exist in one of the following states:

When an alert is raised, it appears in the Manager in an unacknowledged state. Unacknowledged means that you have not officially recognized its presence by marking it acknowledged. An alert remains in an unacknowledged state until you either acknowledge it or delete it.

Unacknowledged alerts display in the Attack Severity Summary monitor of the Dashboard page. Acknowledging alerts dismisses them from the Dashboard. Acknowledged alerts display only in the Attack Log and in reports.

Alerts are backed up to the database and archived in order of occurrence. Deleted alerts are removed from the database. Hence, proper care should be exercised before deleting an alert.
