Hub Overview
Securus Hub is a user portal where assigned contacts can view and manage escalated Severe and Urgent captures.
An email will be sent when a new event is created, providing a direct link to the escalated capture for viewing.
Example Email:
The email subject will state if you have been added to a Severe or Urgent Hub event. An Urgent event will also be followed up with a phone call to ensure receipt of the link.
Clicking on the link will take you to the console where you will be asked to login with your provided credentials.
If you do not have any credentials or are having trouble logging in, please contact the support team.
Upon successful login you will be presented with the capture in the full screen capture view.
Some useful quick view information is displayed at the top of the capture view, here you will see:
The severity (Severe or Urgent) that has been assigned to the capture by the FMS team,
Captures marked as Urgent are followed up with a phone call to alert the nominated contacts immediately and to ensure safe receipt of the capture.
The library category that the capture belongs to, the phrase that was captured,
The user that created the capture,
The source that the capture came from (Keyboard, Application etc),
The unique ID number for the capture,
Note that this is a different value from the event ID.
Scrolling down, you will see the Capture Detail section which includes important information such as, the username, computer name, and times that the capture was created and received by the server.
For more information on the full screen capture view, please see the following knowledge base article: Captures View | Full Screen Capture View. Clicking the Help button on this screen will also direct you this article.

Closing an event will move it from the Open view to the Closed view.
