Announcements can be configured at the **client level**, ensuring that only the relevant users receive them. For example, if a realm contains 10 applications, administrators can choose to publish announcements for only 2 applications, each with its own tailored message. This provides a centralized and reliable way to share critical changes, system updates, policy modifications, or general notifications in real time—without relying on external communication channels. By enabling application-specific announcements, ZTrust ensures that users stay informed with the right information at the right time, while giving administrators fine-grained control over communication. **Configuring the Announcement Feature:** 1. Log in to the ZTrust Admin Console.
