IM InfoSphere Identity Insight, Version 8.0

Assigning alerts to yourself

By assigning an alert to yourself, you take ownership for reviewing, researching, and dispositioning that alert. After you assign an alert to yourself, that alert only displays in your Alert Summary window, making it easier for you to identify your alerts.

  1. From the Visualizer, in the Alert Summary window, from the Alert Summary table, click an unassigned alert summary. The alert summary contains one or more alerts that are grouped by alert type, and share the same description, status, resolution rule, likeness score, and relationship score.
  2. From the Alert List table, double-click the alert to assign to yourself.
  3. In the Research window, click Set Status.
  4. In Set Status, do the following actions:
    1. In Select the action you want to perform, select Set Status. A corresponding activity code displays in Select Activity Code.
    2. Required: In Select Status, select Assigned. If you select another status, the alert is not assigned to you.
    3. Optional: To assign a different activity code, select it from Select Activity Code. If you do not see the activity code that you want to select, contact your system administrator to arrange to configure the activity code.
    4. Enter comments or notes in the Comments text box. For example, you might choose to enter comments about why you are changing the status, or include notes about your analysis of this alert.
    5. Click OK to save your changes.
Results

The alert now reflects the assigned status and only displays in your Alert Summary window, after you refresh the window display. Other analysts in your Visualizer analyst group will no longer see this alert, after they refresh their Alert Summary window display.
