Slack Alerts
Receive vendor risk alerts in real time in your Slack channel. Critical CVEs, status incidents, and breach notifications are delivered the moment Gjall detects them — no polling required.
What you'll receive
- Critical and high-severity CVEs for your monitored vendors
- Status page incidents (outages, degraded performance)
- Data breach and security incident alerts
- CISA KEV (Known Exploited Vulnerabilities) alerts
You can configure which severity levels trigger Slack notifications in Settings → Notifications.
Step 1 — Create a Slack Incoming Webhook
1
Go to api.slack.com/apps and click Create New App → From scratch.
2
Name the app Gjall Alerts and select your workspace.
3
From the left sidebar, go to Incoming Webhooks and toggle Activate Incoming Webhooks to On.
4
Click Add New Webhook to Workspace.
5
Select the Slack channel where you want to receive Gjall alerts (e.g. #security-alerts). Click Allow.
6
Copy the webhook URL — it looks like: https://hooks.slack.com/services/T.../B.../...
Step 2 — Configure in Gjall
2
Paste your webhook URL into the Slack webhook URL field.
3
Click Save changes. Gjall will send a test message to verify the connection.
Tips
Separate channel per severity
Create separate webhooks for #security-critical and #security-all. Use different webhooks in Gjall settings for each severity level (configure in Notifications tab).
On-call integration
Point the Slack webhook to a channel that's connected to your on-call system (PagerDuty, OpsGenie) to automatically page on-call engineers for critical vendor alerts.
