What determines whether or not something is statistically significant?

We received an email alert stating: 

---

Hourly Revenue was $x which was x% below expected. This is statistically significant.

---

What determines whether or not an event is statistically significant? Are we able to change that threshold?

So it sounds like someone on your team has set up an Alert.

Alerts have multiple trigger options, including anomaly detection. You can change the trigger and, depending on the trigger chosen, change the threshold options.
