Introducing Audit Logs: Ensuring Visibility, Security, and Compliance in FireHydrant

When something goes wrong, the first question is always: what changed? Whether it’s an unexpected change to your on-call schedule, a broken automation, or a modified Runbook that just seems off, understanding the issue starts with knowing who made what change, when it happened, and what exactly changed.

Feature Spotlight - Document Library

Although not all incidents are the same, resolvers often need similar resources or follow standard processes when responding to them. To save valuable time and effort, teams who frequently reference or attach the same files when sending incident notifications can use the xMatters Document Library to store everything in one place. You can easily add and organize files such as screenshots, maps, or response plans and attach them to incidents from within the library or directly on the incident console. For sensitive documents, set permissions so only certain roles can access, modify, or delete them.

Signals Turns One! A Year of Growth and Innovation

A year ago, we launched Signals with a simple but powerful idea: on-call shouldn’t be a painful juggling act. Too often, teams had to bounce between separate alerting and incident response tools, slowing everything down when speed mattered most. And traditional on-call tools? They were built around services, not the people responding to them.
