Configure Security Monitoring Alerts

Security Monitoring Alerts allow users to configure security metric thresholds in their Security Center. Users define thresholds through chosen threat metric parameters; alerts and warnings are the two types of thresholds available.

Option Description
Alert Threshold A required value that triggers a dashboard notice when the evaluated metric exceeds the defined threshold.
Warn Threshold An optional value that triggers a dashboard notice when the evaluated metric exceeds the defined threshold.
Recovery An optional value that measures when the evaluated metric has returned to normal levels.

Configure and update alert thresholds

Thresholds, calculated as a weighted moving average for a given metric, are customizable in your Auth0 Dashboard.
