Daily Email Summary

Overview

Daily email summaries can be used to communicate a daily report from ActiveEye to a selected group of recipients through email.

The daily email summary automatically includes the following information:

• Overview
• Total Events
• Total Alerts
• Security Cases (new and open)
• Engineering Cases (new and open)
• New Security Advisories
• Endpoint Threats (if you have Endpoint enabled)

Once a daily email summary is set up, additional information can be added for inclusion in the emails by following the Adding a Query to a Daily Email Summary procedure that appears in this topic.

Prerequisites

Before you begin setting up a daily email summary, you will need to set up the list of email recipients via the Contacts feature. The contact must be set up as the email notification contact type. Once a daily email summary is set up, you can modify its associated contact at any time to add or remove email recipients.

You can associate only one contact with a daily email summary. For information on managing contacts, see the ActiveEye Capabilities by User Role topic.
