Create an alert

  1. In the Device Trust Manager menu, go to Overview > Alerts.

  2. Select Create alert.

  3. Enter a name for the alert.

  4. Under Account activity, select the Event type. The following options are available:

    • Certificate issuance threshold:

      Use this event type to get notified when a large number of certificates are issued in a short period of time. This helps you spot unusual spikes in activity, so you can take action when something doesn’t look right.

    • Expiring certificates:

      Use this event type to get notified when your certificates are nearing expiration. This helps you stay on top of renewals and avoid unexpected service disruptions.

    • Certificate issuance:

      Use this event type to get notified instantly whenever a certificate is issued. This provides real-time visibility into certificate activity so you can track changes as they happen.

    • Certificate renewed:

      Use this event type to get notified when a certificate is updated or replaced with a new one. This helps you keep track of renewals and ensures your systems stay up to date with the latest certificates.

    • Certificate revoked:

      Use this event type to get notified when a certificate is revoked. This helps you quickly identify invalid or compromised certificates so you can respond without delay and keep your systems secure.

    • Choose certificate management policy: To monitor a specific certificate management policy, select the policy from the dropdown list.
