Notification profiles

Notification profiles are sets of rules that determine how Bitdefender MDR notifies the specified recipients. The email notifications cover key MDR activities related to your company or the ones you manage.

You can create multiple notification profiles for the same company, each with customized settings for different recipient groups. If you manage multiple companies, you can create separate profiles for each.

Important

Customer verification requests notifications do not rely on notification profiles. All MDR Admins automatically receive email alerts for verification requests.

The Notification profiles page in the MDR Portal displays all the notification profiles for your company and the ones you manage.
