While assigning business impact will help us understand the priority of your issue and address it with the relevant urgency, this does not guarantee a specific time to resolution of the issue. We will do our best to offer the best solution in the shortest time possible or any applicable short term solution in the interim. We thank you for your understanding and patience.

Your issue has been created, and a member of our team will be notified. You can always return to the issue to check up on its status, add comments, or share it with your colleagues. If the issue resolves on its own, you can also close the ticket yourself by selecting the Close button.

Slack

If your team uses Slack, HUMAN offers to its Advanced Support customers a support service of communication using a designated, shared Slack channel with your organization. To request a connection, submit a ticket at the HUMAN Service Desk or email us at [email protected].

To create an issue:

  1. Send a new message to the shared channel describing your issue.
  2. React to the message with a ticket 🎫 (:ticket:) emoji. This will trigger a Raise Request message in the channel.

Email

You can email your request to [email protected]. A ticket will be created based on your email. Be sure to include as much information or context in your email as possible. Please make sure to include the relevant product or solution name and the relevant HUMAN app_id.

If your request is related to an attack, we recommend including the following:

  • app_id
  • Domain
  • Path and/or endpoint
  • IP and/or user agent
  • Reference ID
  • Incident time frame

If your request is related to an integration issue, we recommend including the following:

  • app_id
  • Enforcer type and version
  • Mobile SDK type and version (Android/iOS, Native/WebView/Hybrid)
  • Environment (production, staging, non-production, etc)
  • Domain and/or Path and/or endpoint if applicable
  • Steps to reproduce
  • IP address used while observing the issue
  • Screen recording or screenshot of the issue, if possible

If your request is a question about the Portal, we recommend including the following:

  • app_id
  • Portal link (set specific dates and not relative dates)
  • Screen recording or screenshot of the issue, if possible

Track requests

Once you submit an issue, it will be reviewed by a member of our Support team and go through the following stages. Be aware that some stages may be passed over depending on the type of request you submit per HUMAN discretion.

  1. Preliminary assessment: Our team assesses any affected systems or potential impact from your request. We will then contact you with an initial incident report with our observations or with follow up questions that will be necessary for our assessment.
  2. Customer engagement: We work directly with you to assess the severity of the issue and determine an appropriate response. We will escalate to specialized members of our teams based on our assessment.
  3. Information sharing: While we find a solution for your issue, we’ll keep in contact with you to communicate progress and assess any changing needs.
  4. Issue investigation: We troubleshoot the incident and test our solution if applicable. We will escalate to specialized members of our teams as part of our investigation.
  5. Issue resolution: We implement our solution and mitigating measures to ensure the issue does not occur again. For example, for reported attacks, we identify attack patterns within legitimate network traffic and implement mitigating measures to stop the ongoing attack effectively.
  6. Issue closure: We monitor the effectiveness of the attack mitigation measures implemented, verify that the threat has been successfully neutralized, and formally mark the incident as resolved or closed in the HUMAN Service Desk. We also send you a survey via email or Slack asking for your feedback on our support. We intake this feedback to continuously improve our services.

Generally, our team prioritizes issues with the highest urgency. Issues that affect your ability to use the HUMAN platform or ongoing attacks, for example, are considered more urgent than an issue in the Portal that affects reporting. This may affect resolution times, but we strive to respond to every request promptly.

Escalate requests

You can escalate your ticket if you feel that:

  • The business impact became critical
  • The issue requires one of HUMAN’s support leadership team
  • The service you have received so far has been poor or unresponsive

To escalate an issue:

  1. Navigate to the HUMAN Service Desk and select the ticket you want to escalate.
  2. Select the Escalate button. This will open an Escalation reason popup.
  3. Provide a reason why you are escalating your issue.
  4. Submit your escalation request.

Once your request is submitted, HUMAN’s support  will escalate to the relevant tier and/or subject matter expert until the final resolution of your issue. HUMAN Support will continue to communicate the status and relevant information or questions in the original ticket created.
