Configure Advanced Settings for Confluence

Learn how to configure advanced settings in Nightfall for Confluence.

This stage allows you to select notification channels if a policy violation occurs. The advanced settings page consists of the following configurations.

Admin Alerting: This section describes the process of setting alerts for Nightfall administrators when a policy violation is detected.

Automated Actions: This section describes the automated actions that can be taken when a policy violation is detected.

End User Notification: This section describes the process of setting alerts for end users (a person whose action caused a violation) when a policy violation is detected.

Admin Alerting

The alert configurations configured in this section describe the process of creating alerts at the policy level. Policy-level alerts apply only to the policy on which they are configured. To configure an alert on all the Slack policies, you must configure alerts at the integration level. To learn more about how to configure integration-level policies for Slack integration, read this document.

The steps to configure alert channels for policy-level integration are the same as in the case of integration-level alerts. You can refer to this document for steps.

Automated Actions

This section describes the various actions that Nightfall takes automatically when a violation is detected. You must turn on the toggle switch to enable an action. All the automated actions are permanent and cannot be reversed once applied. You can also set the timeline as to when an action must be taken (immediately after detecting a violation or after some time).

The various automated actions are described as follows.

Delete: This action deletes the Confluence attachments in which sensitive data is found.
Redact: This action redacts the sensitive data found on the Confluence page.

End User Notification

This section allows you to configure notifications to be sent to the end user whose actions triggered the violation.

Custom Message: Enter a custom message to be sent to the end user. This message is sent in an Email. You can modify the default message provided by Nightfall and draft your message. The total character length allowed is 1000 characters. You can also add hyperlinks in the custom message. The syntax is <link | text >. For example, to hyperlink https://www.nightfall.ai with the text Nightfall website, you must write <https://www.nightfall.ai | Nightfall website>.
Automation: You can either select Email, Slack, or both as an automated notification method. You must turn the toggle switch to use this option. Based on the options selected, end-users receive notification on their Email account associated with JIRA, or Slack account configured.

End User Remediation

End-User remediation (also known as Human Firewall) allows you to configure remediation measures that end users can take when a violation is detected on their JIRA environment. You must turn on the toggle switch to use this option. The various available options are as follows.

Redact: This action redacts all the sensitive information found in the Confluence pages. To allow end-users to implement this action, you must disable it from the Automated Actions section.
Delete: This action deletes the pages that contain sensitive information. To allow end-users to implement this action, you must disable it from the Automated Actions section.
Report as False Positive with Business Justification: This option allows end users to report false positive alerts and provide a business justification as to why the alert is considered to be false positive.
Report as False Positive: This option allows end users to report false positive alerts.
When a Violation is Reported as False Positive: You can use this option to set actions to be taken when a violation is reported as false positive by the end-user. You can either set the remediation to be automatic or manual.
Remind Every (until Violation expires): You can use this option to set a reminder for the end-user to take action on the violation. You can choose to remind the end user every 24, 48, or 72 hours.
