What's new in FortiInsight version 6.0.0

The following table lists new features and enhancements in FortiInsight version 6.0.0:

Feature	Description
Redesigned notifications	Notifications have been redesigned and are now stackable in the UI Instead of receiving UI notifications at the top of the UI, they are now much more compact and situated on the lower left. These will also stack if you receive multiple notifications at once, allowing you to see them much clearer.
User experience enhancement	Load on demand to enhance the user experience Analysis and processing are now much more scalable. This ensures events, and alerts are processed and available more quickly.
Menu specific items	Removed high-level Alerts menu item in favor of AI, and Policy specific menu items We have updated the Menu so that the Alerts are now local to the individual components for AI, and Policy.
Implicit feedback for AI module	We have now built-in implicit feedback monitoring for the AI module. This means that if you click on an AI Alert, the AI module will be notified of your interest and begin to learn more robustly based on this information.
5.3.0 Windows Endpoint Collector	Added support for more robust collection of Network Events.
Policies and tag import/export	You can now export and import tags and settings from a JSON file.
New Widgets and Summary tabs	FortiInsight has improved the view of the summary tabs on Threat Hunting (includes a pie chart for top 10 elements). The total number is now provided on headings. Full context menu integration. Highlighting and contextual feedback.
