Never miss a high-impact threat. After the intake process is complete, but before validation, the priority escalation agent identifies sensitive data, weighs business impact, and applies CVSS assessment by Hai to determine urgency, so findings with the greatest risk get immediate attention. These alerts are powered by Automations, with ready-to-use templates for Slack, Teams, PagerDuty, Email, and Webhooks.
Key Capabilities:
Escalate issues based on business impact, not just technical severity.
Accelerate action on vulnerabilities that threaten your most critical assets and data.
Send alerts directly into Slack, Teams, PagerDuty, or email for an early warning.
