Integrating Strata Cloud Manager into your existing operations involves setting up proactive alerts, allowing you to detect and manage potential issues before they escalate into serious complications. These alerts can be tailored to match your operations team's case management protocol, such as the commonly used P1s or P2s.
For instance, you might set up an alert system wherein critical alerts, which represent the most critical issues, are instantaneously escalated to your security team for immediate attention. On the other hand, warning alerts, which are of lesser urgency but still significant, can be arranged for daily review. Such an arrangement ensures efficient incident management while maintaining the smooth running of your operations.
Another option is to route alerts based on teams; certain categories of alerts, or even specific alerts, can be routed to different teams that will be best equipped to handle them. You can define notification preferences, such as which alerts trigger notifications, how you receive notifications, and how often you receive them, create a notification rule.
