NOTE: For customers who have enabled Vulnerability-based Alerting (see Security Alerts: View By Vulnerability), this report is no longer available.

Overview

The Alert Resolution Duration Report provides information on alerts that were resolved and are therefore no longer relevant. 

Accessing the Alert Resolution Duration Report

  2. From the All Time dropdown menu, select the required time range for the report. Options are: All Time (default), Last Month, Last 3 Months, Last 6 Months, Last 12 Months.

  3. Select the scope for which the report should be created. The default scope is Organizational; however you can select any individual product and/or project for your data scope from the dropdown menus next to the report name. Do as follows:

    2. If you want to base the report on specific projects within the product, open the All Projects dropdown menu and select the projects.

    3. Click Apply and wait for the data to load into the report table.

  4. To further filter the report, do as follows:

    1. Expand the Filter area, select a property, and enter the value by which to filter.
      The property options are: Library (default), Type, Library Type, Creation Date, Resolution, and Resolution Date.

    2. Click Filter.

  5. You can also filter the report by alert types. To do this:

    1. Select or clear the All or Security radio buttons to display all alert types or just security alerts. By default, All is selected.
      You can deselect any of the selected alert types by clearing the check boxes in the Filter area.
      NOTE: You can quickly select all the alert types by clicking the select all alert types link or clear all the check boxes by clicking the deselect all alert types link. 

After defining all the relevant filters, the Alert Resolution Duration Report is generated displaying all the resolved alerts.
