This guide will walk you through what you will find in a policy violation email.
What Is a Policy Violation Email?:
Every time a Policy is violated, a message will be generated, every 4 hours messages are batched into an email, and sent to the administrator email of your instance. These violation emails will contain information on notable events that you have configured within your ManagedMethods platform.
How to Utilize the Emails: In these emails you will find useful information about violated policies. Policy emails can contain a single violation, or many depending on how many were violated in the 4 hour time frame.
Which Environment Violated the Policy?
At the top of each violation, the tile associated with the violation will be noted. For most instances there will only be one environment, however in some cases there may be more than one. Ex: An O-365 Domain, and a Google Domain. Selecting the Blue Text will take you to the appropriate tile.
When was this Policy Violated?
In the top of the page you will find the policy violation period. This will show you the time frame in which the policies were violated, and how many Policies were violated in that period.
What Will the Email Show Me About the Violation?
In the body of the email you will find information about each policy that has been violated. Details will be given about the file / email / app that caused the violation, as well as context into the violation.
