BalkanID Risk Managers can get daily alerts for via the BalkanID Slackbot, keeping them up to date on the access issues that should be addressed without needing to visit the app (contact support@balkan.id
to enable this alert).
For each that has any findings, an alert will be sent via BalkanID Slackbot to each Risk Manager at 9AM CT every day.
Each such alert message includes the name and severity of the Finding, a summary of number of employees, identities and app integrations affected and a link back to the BalkanID web app for further information.
Additionally a list of matched Users and Identities is shown. See the screenshot below for a couple example alerts.
These alerts can be configured on the Configure > System Notifications
page under Findings
, where the alert can be toggled on and off for all and for individual Finding Rules. Additionally, the alerts for individual Finding Rules can be sent to Slack Channels instead of direct messages from BalkanID Slackbot.
Findings (Daily alert) notifications can be disabled entirely with the notification group level toggle, and individually for specific Findings.
The alerts for each Finding can be be sent to a Slack Channel instead of direct message using the Send to Channel
option. Default Channel
can be set as a fallback for Findings without a channel individually specified.
If you'd rather not receive alerts for lower priority findings, but don't want to manage individually toggling specific Finding alerts on and off, you can set the Severity Level
option, which is the minimum Finding Severity for which an alert will file. The default Severity Level
is High
to avoid noisy alerts, but it can be lowered or raised as needed.
To summarize and reduce notification noise further, multiple Findings can be combined with less details in a single alert, by setting the Rollup
toggle for those Findings.

toggles]
