Configure Data Violation Alerts on
Data Security

Learn how to configure notifications on
Data Security
so that administrators and end users are notified of violations.
Data Security
enables you to configure immediate Slack notifications (
alerts
) when the service discovers a data violation. The notification is sent as a Slack channel message. You can send notifications to both administrators and end users. For supported SaaS apps, administrators and end users can immediately manage from within the notification. In doing so, you create an efficient violation management workflow. Notifications to end users provide administrators a low-touch mechanism for training end users on your organization’s internal policies.
