Security Operations Centers (SOCs) are responsible for detection and review of malicious interactions. The SOC issues tickets for interactions that are considered suspicious or threatening. These tickets are then inspected by analysts for approval. For sake of safety, this ticketing system often issues too many “false positives”, i.e., it alerts for interactions that are not […]
