Instant Security Alerts: Never Miss a Threat

An attack detected at 3 AM doesn't wait until you check your dashboard at 9 AM. Every minute of delay gives attackers more time to compromise your systems, steal data, or damage your reputation.

SecZim sends instant alerts the moment threats are detected—wherever you are, however you prefer to receive them.

Multiple Notification Channels

Get alerts through the channels your team actually uses:

📧

Email

Detailed alerts to your inbox with full context

💬

Slack

Real-time notifications in your team channels

🔗

Webhook

Integrate with any system via HTTP callbacks

What Triggers an Alert?

Configure alerts for the events that matter to your organization:

Auto-Blacklist Events

When an IP is automatically blocked

Rate Limit Violations

When senders exceed configured limits

SPF Failures

Potential spoofing attempts detected

Geo-Block Triggers

Connections from blocked countries

Policy Rejections

Custom policy rules triggered

Unusual Volume

Abnormal traffic patterns detected

Rich Alert Content

Every alert contains the context you need to understand and respond:

Auto-Blacklist: IP Blocked
IP 185.234.72.19
Country Russia
Reason 15 SPF failures in 1 hour
Block Duration 24 hours
Time 2024-01-15 03:42:17 UTC
Recent Targets ceo@company.com, finance@company.com

Configurable Alert Rules

Not every event needs an alert. Configure thresholds and filters:

  • Severity levels: Only alert on high-priority events
  • Aggregation: Bundle multiple events into digest
  • Time windows: Quiet hours for non-critical alerts
  • Rate limiting: Prevent alert floods during attacks

Slack Integration Example

Your security channel receives a message: "IP 185.234.72.19 (Russia) auto-blacklisted after 15 SPF failures. Targeting executive accounts." Your team sees it immediately and can investigate within seconds.

Webhook Integration

Connect SecZim alerts to any system:

  • PagerDuty for on-call escalation
  • SIEM systems for correlation
  • Custom dashboards and automation
  • Ticketing systems like Jira or ServiceNow

Webhooks include full JSON payloads with all alert details, making integration simple and powerful.

Alert History

Every alert is logged permanently. Search and filter past alerts to identify patterns, investigate incidents, or generate compliance reports.

Stay Informed, Stay Protected

Get instant alerts that keep you ahead of threats 24/7.

Response Time Matters

In email security, minutes matter. A phishing campaign detected and blocked immediately causes zero damage. The same campaign discovered hours later could mean compromised accounts, stolen data, and regulatory fines.

Be the first to know. Respond before damage is done.
