View System Alert Categories
System categories are pre-configured categories that are used while creating alerts or while members are submitting threat intelligence. While you cannot create new system categories, you can edit the fields associated with these categories. System categories supported in Collaborate are Malware Advisories, Vulnerability Advisories, Crisis Notification, Partner Submission, Partner Advisory, Event, Request for Information, Poll, Knowledge Check, Informational, Actionable, Intel Alerts, Incident Alerts, and Educational.
When creating alerts and submitting threat intel, the Additional section displays fields based on the category selected for the alert. View and edit system categories and assign fields to allow alert creators to add additional information to the alert.
Note
You cannot deactivate or change the name of the system categories.
