Alert Note

An alert note is a short annotation or remark added to an alert entry that provides context or additional information. These notes can be used to explain why an alert was flagged, detail any investigative steps taken, or highlight any special considerations for future reference. Alert notes help compliance and security teams maintain a clear record of the actions and decisions related to each alert.

Adding notes to alerts improves the traceability and transparency of the alert-handling process. It allows team members to better understand the history and context of an alert if revisited at a later date, contributing to more effective risk management and compliance documentation.
