# messaging\_discord

**Explanation**

The messaging\_discord NDM is designed to detect the use of the Discord messaging application on the network. When triggered, it alerts network administrators to the presence of this application and allows for further investigation into its use.

**What to Look For**

To examine the results of the messaging\_discord event, you should first check the network logs for any instances of the application being accessed or used. You should also inspect the endpoints of any users suspected of using Discord, and look for signs such as the installation of the application on their device or any suspicious network activity. By analyzing this data, you can gain a better understanding of the scope and severity of the security event and take appropriate action to mitigate any potential risks to your network.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.fusion.vectra.ai/detection-models/library/operational-governance/messaging_discord.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
