High-confidence threat detection is able to detect threats with a high degree of supporting evidence. Modern detection platforms don’t just fire an alert when one “odd” event happens; they correlate many factors across endpoints, networks, cloud resources, user identities and threat intelligence sources.
Such a method provides context-aware threat detection, enabling analysts to get a better picture of the attack itself, as well as how it was executed and what systems were impacted. Security teams get a whole view of the attack chain, instead of dealing with isolated alerts.
High-confidence detection underpins approaches such as unified, cross-domain, and multi-layer threat detection by combining and correlating evidence from multiple security sources. By analyzing these signals together, organizations can identify attack patterns that may remain hidden when individual events are investigated in isolation.
