In Talkdesk Guardian™, Cases provide a briefing on any unusual security threats or events.
On September 14th, 2022, to allow more detail and higher accuracy when flagging various network issues and unusual agent behaviors, we will add five new “Case types” that leverage the Machine Learning (ML) models that are the backbone of Cases.
What will change?
The “Case types” in the following table will be available beginning September 14th, 2022. Guardian Cases and the associated UI will be updated for all users on the same date.
