Alert → Escalate

AI-generated

Overview

This node operation escalates an alert by creating or updating a case with the alert details in a DFIR IRIS Incident Response Platform. It is useful for security analysts who want to manage alerts by associating them with cases, adding relevant tags, notes, and importing related assets or indicators of compromise (IOCs). For example, when an alert requires further investigation, this operation can escalate it into a case with detailed context and timeline events.

Use Case Examples

  1. Escalate an alert to a case with a specific title and tags for tracking.
  2. Add an alert to a case timeline as an event and import related assets and IOCs for comprehensive case management.
