Uninstalling the Threat Globe app

The Threat Globe app is deprecated and is no longer installed with QRadar Pulse as of version 2.2.6. The Threat Globe app is not uninstalled during the Pulse upgrade and continues to work while CentOS is running in the Docker containers. Administrators who want to remove the Threat Globe app can do so by using the QRadar Assistant app.

About this task

To minimize disruption, notify your nonadministrative users before you uninstall the Threat Globe app. In QRadar Pulse, users who were viewing a Threat Globe dashboard before you remove the app see a blank dashboard.
