Triage detections
The Triage detections view is the landing page for the Detections tab. Use this view to review and respond to detections triggered by the detector.
To view the Triage detections page:
- Go to Detections > Triage detections. The Detections page opens.
- (Optional) Filter the detections on the page.
Search Enter the technique ID, technique name or technique description.
Detectors are filtered based on the prefix matching the selected technique ID. If Technique T1234 is entered, the detectors returned include its sub-techniques T1234.001, T1234.002, T1234.003, etc.
Severity Select High (H), Medium (M), or Low (L).
Additional Filters Click the filter icon to view additional filters.
Filter
Description
Category Filter the detectors by category. See, Detector Categories. Assigned to
Filter by assigned detections. See, Assigning detections.
Created By Filter by the account that created the detector. Technique Filter by the technique used for the detection. Confidence Select High (H), Medium (M), or Low (L).
Detection Status Select All, Active or Idle.
All
Returns all detections the user has access to regardless of whether or not it was triggered in the current account.
Active Returns all active detections. Idle Returns all detections that have been triggered in the current account but are not currently active. Muted Select Unmuted or Muted. See, Muting detectors. Disabled Select Enabled or Disabled. See, Disabling detectors. Order By Order the detectors by Impacted Devices, Muted Devices, Severity, Confidence, Category, or Last Seen. - Click a detector to open the Details page. The following information is displayed:
Category
The attack category.
First Seen
The UTC date and time the first event associated with the detection occurred.
Last Seen
The UTC date and time of the last known event tied to the detector was observed.
Updated
The UTC date and time the detector was modified.
Resolution Method
Automatic: The detection will be resolved if events containing the same host and sensor ID are not observed for the specified time period.
Manual: The detection will remain active until an analyst resolves the detection.
MITRE ATT&CK
The MITRE ATT&CK ID.
Primary Technique
The primary attack name and ID.
Specificity
Behaviors
The behavior coverage.
Description A description of the detection. You can use this description to search for detections. See, Search for detections with the detector description
Next Steps Recommendations to resolve the detection. Show Matching Events Click to view the Entity Lookup. Author The detector author. Impacted Device Field The fields used to generate the detection. The internal IP address in the src.ip
ordst.ip
fields is the default.Indicator Fields The indicators the detector uses to generate the detection.
This information is useful for identifying related activity and tracking indicators over time.
Detectors can define up to five fields to extract indicators from, and each detection can store up to five unique indicators for each indicator field.
Impacted devices The active detections for the detector. All Active defections are displayed by default. You can create a filter to view Muted or Resolved detections. See, Impacted Devices.
You can use this tab to resolve detections or to search for a device by IP.
Query This tab displays the IQL query defined for the detector. You can use a query string to create a custom detector. See, Adding custom filters to a detector query.
Events This tab displays all of the events that have matched the detector's query.
Left-click on an entity to open the Entity Panel.
Right-click a field to open its menu (for example, Search Events, Targeted Search and Copy to Clipboard).
Hover a column header to lock, sort or arrange the columns.
These events are duplicates of the original matching event. When an event matches a detector's query, a copy is created and added to the detector's list of Latest Events so the event remains associated with the detector.
This list can display up to the last 1000 matching events. Events could remain in the list in perpetuity if the detector rarely fires.
Indicators This tab displays the field value extracted from a detection's event(s) as defined by the detector.
This information is useful for identifying related activity and tracking indicators over time. Detectors can define up to five fields to extract indicators from and each detection can store up to five unique indicators for each indicator field.
Detections Graph The Detections Graph plots a detector's detection volume over time.
If a posture-related detector fires constantly, the graph will help show whether the issue is improving or worsening over time.
Search for detections with the detector description
You can use text of the detector description to search for detections. Copy and paste the description text into and Global Search field and click Enter. Search results will be highlighted in the Detection Description column of the in the Detections section of results.
