Alerts & notifications
Vigil sends you the alerts that matter and filters out the noise. The goal is simple: fewer, higher-signal notifications — and a team that acts on the critical ones instead of leaving you to.
Where alerts go
You can route notifications to:
- Slack — a shared channel with your Vigil team
- PagerDuty — for on-call escalation
- Email — for individuals or distribution lists
Tell your Vigil team which destinations you want, and for which severities.
What triggers an alert
Alerts can come from any active module, for example:
- Infrastructure health and availability issues (uptime checks failing, resource saturation)
- New critical or high security findings
- Cost anomalies that break your recent spending baseline
- Pipeline failures and deployment issues (CI/CD)
Reducing noise
Vigil tunes alert thresholds so you aren’t paged for transient or low-value events. Severity-based routing means, for example, critical findings can page on-call while lower-severity items simply appear in the portal and your weekly report.
The human layer
For managed plans, critical alerts aren’t just delivered — your Vigil team investigates and remediates within your response SLA. See Plans & modules for what’s included at each level.
