Working the alerts queue

What untriaged means, and the three things that move a case out of the queue.

The Alerts page has two tabs. Untriaged is the working queue and opens by default. Triaged is everything else.

The data here is invented.

The row names the case the alert grouped onto, so you can tell before you open it whether somebody is already working one.

The queue, with cases being picked up as they arrive. Drawn to show how the screen works, not to match the current build.

Both tabs list cases rather than alerts, because an alert always sits on one.

What untriaged means

A case is untriaged when all three of these hold: it is open, nobody owns it, and nobody has recorded a decision on it. It is a case nothing has happened to yet.

Working through it

  1. 1

    Open the case from the queue

    The agent has usually already investigated, so the case opens with findings and a recommendation on it.

  2. 2

    Assign it to yourself if you are going to work it

    This alone takes it out of the untriaged queue, so nobody else picks up the same case.

  3. 3

    Decide, or assign it to somebody else

    Any of the five outcomes moves the case out of the queue, including the three that keep it open.

A case you put on hold is triaged. Somebody looked at it and recorded a decision, which is what the queue tracks. It still shows on your own case list.
