Investigate Detections

The Detections tab is categorized between Incidents and Alerts. From the Detections tab, you can investigate incidents and alerts for active threats by Malware name and malware family name. The Detections tab initiates a workflow which includes determining the detection source, quarantining the asset, and assigning the incidents to the assignees for remediation. 

The following combined screenshot is an example of the Incidents and Alerts tabs under Detections:

This section covers about:

Incidents

The Incidents tab lists all the incidents detected on an asset. The Incidents page provides information such as the Incident Number, Incident Description, Status, and Severity Score.

A 0 risk score is considered non-malicious, and hence no incidents are created with this score. 

The highest incident score is the primary factor of the incident metadata, which includes the overall incident score and description. The incident score and description will be dynamically updated based on the high-scored events during the incident's progression.

The Incident aggregation panel displayed at the left of the page lists the Malware Family, Malware Category, Behavioural Detection, Incident Status, and Assignee. The Behavioural Detection lists the MITRE Technique names and Technique IDs. You can click on any of these categories to get the complete list of the assets impacted with that incident.

The following screenshot highlights the Incident aggregation panel on the Incidents page of the Detections tab:

Features on Incidents Page

Based on the Incident Number, the incident data cleanup action is performed. The default incident retention period is 60 days. After 60 days, the incidents will no longer be available. Incident data cleanup is performed for all the incidents with Open, In Progress, and Closed statuses for more than 60 days.

This section lists the following features that are performed on the Incidents tab: 

Actions

You can perform bulk actions like Change Status and Assign Incident from the Actions drop-down menu. The bulk actions cannot be performed if the Assignee is different. If Malware Protection is enabled, the default Assignee of an incident is Antimalware. This assignee's Status is Closed since the events are remediated. However, you can change the status of the incident. The following screenshots show the comparison of the Actions option when Assignee is the same and different:
