Blue Matter SOC Security Alert Enrollment

This page describes the enrollment and consent process for Blue Matter Consulting's Security Operations Center (SOC) Security Alert SMS notification program. This is an internal notification program operated by Blue Matter Consulting solely for its own staff — specifically the account owner and designated IT and security administrators. It is not a public or consumer-facing service, and there is no public or web-based signup.

Who receives messages

Only Blue Matter Consulting staff whose mobile numbers have been explicitly enrolled receive messages. This is limited to the account owner and designated IT / security administrators responsible for responding to security incidents in Blue Matter's own Microsoft 365 and Google Workspace environment. No one outside this enrolled internal group receives messages.

How staff opt in (enrollment & consent)

A staff member is enrolled through Blue Matter's internal IT onboarding process:

During IT onboarding, the staff member voluntarily provides their own mobile number for the purpose of receiving SOC security alerts.
The staff member reviews this program and signs an internal written consent / IT acknowledgment agreeing to receive automated security alert text messages at that number.
An authorized Blue Matter administrator then enrolls the consented mobile number into the SOC alerting system.

In this way, every enrolled staff member has explicitly provided their number and consented, in writing, to its use for security alerts before any message is sent. A number is never added without the staff member first providing it and signing the internal consent/acknowledgment.

What messages are sent

Messages are automated security incident notifications (for example, alerts about severe or active security events detected in Blue Matter's own tenant). Message frequency varies and depends on security events — recipients may receive messages only when a qualifying security incident occurs.
