What it does
Mails a person when a safety check holds, refuses or stops a step to protect your data -- for example when far more vulnerabilities would close than usual.
When enabled
On is the default: it works as described under "What it does".
When disabled
Off sends no such mail: the event is still recorded in run health, on the Guards page of the Pro web app and in the audit trail, and still reported to Invardia when status reports are on. While a check keeps tripping, at most one mail a day is sent, saying how many times it happened.
Risk and how to reverse it
No check mails anyone any more: a held or stopped step is seen only on the Guards page, in run health and in the audit trail. Reversible at once.
Requires
Nothing else.
Recommended
Keep it on. Change it when: Leave it on. Turn it off only if another system already watches these events for you.
