Collaboration

Collaboration tools such as Slack or Microsoft Teams are ideal for near real‑time notifications and discussions about compliance findings.

Notification Patterns​

Using Cloudaware integrations or webhooks, you can:

  • Send channel notifications when new high‑severity violations are created.
  • Alert specific teams based on ownership fields or tags on the affected assets.
  • Post summaries of daily or weekly changes to posture.

Messages typically include:

  • Policy name and severity.
  • Asset identifiers and a short description of the issue.
  • Links back to Cloudaware or ITSM tickets for follow‑up.

Usage Tips​

  • Reserve high‑noise controls for dashboards and reports; use collaboration channels for higher‑value, actionable alerts.
  • Create separate channels for different domains (for example, security, platform, networking) to avoid noise.
  • Pair collaboration notifications with ticket creation so there is always a durable record of work.
