Quick UI Review

Summary of Suggestions

  • Use shorter, more human-readable dates for the date column up-top. "2 days ago", "1 week ago", etc. Specific time stamps can be displayed in the details pane.
  • Do not display the host column if the system is only configured for one host.
  • Swap the summary and date columns so summary appears right after the quiet button.
  • Rename window title "Security Alert Browser"
  • Remove lower bar with 'audit listener' '12/12' and connection toggle unless there's a really good rationale for it being there.
  • Get rid of short description. It's just an ellipsed form of the long description anyway.
  • Hide the debug information by default. Only show it if explicitly asked for. By default it appears quite intimidating.
