Security banner announcements are announcements displayed to customer administrators, sent by ServiceNow, to keep you informed about fixes for potential security threats that were discovered recently. These alerts contain a summary of the security risk and include a link where you can learn more and act to secure your instance.

Administrators can dismiss banner by selecting the close \(x\) button, but the banner re-appears with each new session until the banner expiration date is passed. Administrators can disable banner announcements by setting the **sn\_vsc.configure\_customer\_push\_action** system property value to `false`. The duration for which the banner appears is controlled by **Start** and **End** field values for the banner. These fields are found in banner's record in the Banner Announcement \[sys\_ux\_banner\_announcement\] table.

## Enable or disable security banner announcements

The security banner feature is enabled by default. To enable or disable security banner announcements, navigate to **System Security** > **Security Center** > **Notifications**. From this page, select the **Manage announcement settings** button.
