Why Teams Monitor Cyber Security
A classification flags content for an analyst to review.
Cyber Security events often appear online before anyone reports them internally
Repeated scenarios show where risk concentrates, by site, product or supplier
A specific classification sends the alert to the team that owns it
Cyber Security: From Alert to Case
The Scout alert is the starting point. The risk category tells the investigator which people, places and things to establish first.
How the ChatGraph™ AI graph builder works- Scout alert: Data Breach. Your team uses Nexus to establish which actor makes the claim, what the sample shows, and whether the victim confirms it.
- The analyst directs ChatGraph, which researches the people, places and things involved and writes them into the case with the sources it used.
- Each link is marked established, alleged, not established or denied.
- Entities the case turns up can go on a Scout monitor for the specific risk.
Teams That Watch Cyber Security
