SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Security Operations Centers struggle with fragmented workflows, inconsistent triage and handovers, and fragmented reporting that slow investigations and obscure performance metrics.

Core Features & Use Cases

Alert Triage: Document security alerts with standardized dispositions
Shift Handovers: Generate structured handover reports for seamless transitions
Metrics Tracking: Track SOC KPIs including MTTD, MTTR, and false positive rates
Triage Templates: Pre-built templates for common alert types
IOC Documentation: Track indicators of compromise during investigations

Quick Start

Run the examples to triage an alert using AlertTriage, generate a shift handover with ShiftHandover, and produce a metrics report with SOCMetrics, following the sample in the documentation.

FAQPage Schema

How do I standardize SOC alert triage and shift handovers?▼

SOC alert triage and shift handovers are standardized using pre-built templates and scripts to document dispositions and generate structured handover reports. This ensures consistent, audit-ready outputs for analysts transitioning between shifts.

What is the best way to track SOC KPIs like MTTD and MTTR during investigations?▼

Tracking SOC KPIs like MTTD and MTTR is handled by operational reporting scripts that calculate metrics such as mean time to detect, mean time to respond, and false positive rates. This produces consistent metrics reports for performance evaluation.

Do I need external Python libraries to automate security operations workflows?▼

No external Python libraries are needed to automate security operations workflows. The tool requires Python 3.9 or higher and relies entirely on the standard library, using provided scripts, reference materials, and templates to function.

Can I document indicators of compromise during security alert investigations?▼

Yes, you can document indicators of compromise during security alert investigations. The tool includes IOC documentation features that allow SOC analysts to track indicators within standardized triage templates during active investigations.

How do I generate a shift handover report for security operations?▼

Shift handover report generation for security operations is done using the ShiftHandover script. It takes ongoing investigation details and outputs a structured handover report for seamless transitions between SOC analysts, ensuring no context is lost.

What types of security alerts can I triage using standardized templates?▼

You can triage common security alert types using pre-built triage templates. The AlertTriage script allows SOC analysts to document security alerts with standardized dispositions, ensuring consistent and audit-ready outputs across various alert categories.
