May 21, 2019 — ETP updates

Security templates now available. An ​SIA​ administrator can now apply a security template or a preset template to a policy configuration. This allows administrators to implement best practices when configuring policy actions. It also gives administrators a starting point to defining a policy.

When creating or modifying a policy, you can select one of these templates:

• Strict. Contains settings that block known and most suspected threat categories. This template applies settings that are a best practice for a policy.
• Monitor-only. Logs and reports threats but it does not block them. The Monitor-only template is ideal for testing or assessing policy impact before using the Strict template. This template assigns the monitor policy action to all known and suspected threat categories.
• Custom. Let’s you define policy actions for known and suspected threats.
  A security template defines settings for threat categories in the ​Akamai​ Security tab only.

Updates to delegated and tenant access. A delegated administrator can now:

• Add email address for communication emails and assign communication emails. A delegated administrator can assign these users to any communication email.

• View Security Connector activity.

  A tenant administrator can now:

• Add emails address for communication emails and configure these users to receive communication emails for alerts and system issues.

• Schedule a report.

• View and analyze DNS event data on the Dashboard, Event Analysis, and DNS activity pages.
  The data in a scheduled report and on these reporting pages are based on the locations the tenant administrator can access.

Source IP now a dimension for DNS activity. On the DNS tab of the Activity page, you can now report the top source IP addresses that generated DNS requests. Source IP is now available as a dimension or data type in all DNS activity menus.
