Note: Device Alerts is only available for Desktop Security for Teams users.
As a Malwarebytes for Teams customer, Device Alerts inform you if one of your protected devices has a security issue that requires your attention. Desktop Security sends an email report when a device hasn't been scanned or hasn't been seen by the app in over a week. The email displays the following columns:
- Device name: Shows the device name.
- Last scan: Shows the date of when the device was last scanned (either a scheduled or manual scan).
- Last seen: Shows the date when your device last communicated with Malwarebytes, such as when your device checked for updates.
The emails sent to your device are not localized and only sent in English. The emails are sent Monday morning PST, so the receipt of the email varies based on your time zone.
To enable device alerts, follow these steps:
- Sign in to your account.
- Click the Settings
tab.
- In the Malwarebytes for Teams section, click the Device Alerts toggle. The Device Alerts toggle is off by default.
Note: To receive alerts from your devices, each device must have Usage and threat statistics turned on. See our instructions for turning on Usage and threat statistics on Windows and macOS devices.
