Microsoft Teams

Microsoft Teams is a powerful collaboration platform that enables seamless communication and coordination across organizations. With its integration capabilities, it can serve as an effective notification and communication system for security platforms such as OX Security.

By leveraging Microsoft Teams, you can receive real-time security alerts, incident updates, and workflow notifications directly within your Teams channels or private chats, ensuring swift response and improved security operations.

This way, you can streamline incident management, reduce response time, and enhance team collaboration.
