Overview

The Security Alerts: View By Library screen enables you to review all vulnerability-based alerts that are associated with a specific library. Additionally, you can review vulnerability statistics for a selected library (meaning the number of reported vulnerabilities and ignored alerts) and ignore and activate (restore) a selection of vulnerability alerts associated with a library.

Accessing the  Security Alerts: View By Library Screen

To access the Security Alerts: View By Library screen, do as follows:

  • From the menu bar, select Alerts > Security Alerts - View By Library. The Security Alerts - View By Library screen is displayed.

Additional Actions

  • To ignore all the security alerts related to a library's vulnerabilities, check the library's row (checkbox on the left) and select Action > Ignore
  • To activate all the security alerts related to a library's vulnerabilities, filter the table for ignored library's alerts, then check the alert's row (checkbox on the left) and select Action > Activate. The alert will no longer appear in the ignored alerts list and will appear instead in the list of reactivated alerts.
Info
titleIMPORTANT
  • The actions of ignoring and activating alerts are saved to the Change Log History Report. This report can be used to filter and monitor these actions, and to view who performed them and when, and which informative comments those users might have added. 
  • Note that while you perform the action on the library, the application actually performs the action on the vulnerability alerts. If you selected a library with multiple vulnerabilities, the Change Log History Report will display a separate row for each vulnerability alerts.
  • To export an alert to Excel, XML and JSON format, check the alert's row (checkbox on the left), select Action > Export, and select your desired format.
