Cyware Situational Awareness Platform

Create a Channel in the Analyst Portal

You can create channels, and map info sources, tags, and recipient groups to the channel.

Before you Start

You must have the View and Create permissions to create channels.

Steps

To create a new alert channel, do the following:

  1. Sign in to the Analyst Portal and click Administration > Settings in the lower-left corner.

  2. Click Core Settings > Channels.

  3. In the upper-right corner, click Create.

    • Channel name: Enter a name for the channel. For example, Finance. This name is displayed in the Alerts section in the Analyst Portal and members can see this name while using filters in the Member Portal.

    • Recipient Groups: Select the recipient groups for the channel. Only members from the selected recipient groups will receive alerts from the channel. Privileged users can add multiple recipient groups to a channel. Members included in the selected recipient groups can view the channel in the My Feed section in the CSAP Member Portal.

    • Info Sources: Select the information sources for the channel. For example, External Intel Source. In this case, any alerts published with External Intel Source as the information source are added to the channel.

    • Tag Groups (optional): Select the pre-configured tag groups. The tags in the tag group you select are automatically added to the Tags field.

    • Tags: Select the tags for the channel. For example, Ransomware. In this case, any alert tagged with Ransomware is added to the channel. Privileged users can add multiple tags to a channel.

    Note

    Ensure that the Active toggle is turned on to make the channel visible in CSAP.

  4. After making the changes, click Create. The channel is now available in CSAP.
