Network Alert Triage
Problem
Organizations often struggle to keep pace with the high volume of network security alerts triggered by Intrusion Detection Systems (IDS), Intrusion Prevention Systems (IPS), firewalls, and other network monitoring tools.
Manually prioritizing alerts, correlating them with threat intelligence, and investigating false positives can overwhelm security teams, leading to delayed or missed responses.
Solution
Using Bricklayer, Security Operations Center (SOC) teams can automate the collection, correlation, and analysis of network security alerts, accelerating incident response and enhancing overall threat detection capabilities.
A company notices a spike in IDS alerts indicating possible data exfiltration attempts from a critical server.
Instead of sifting through firewall logs, comparing IDS signatures, cross-referencing IP addresses with threat intel, and searching for anomalies in network flow data, Bricklayer’s AI Agents ingest, correlate, analyze, and report on the alerts.
Involved Agents
- SOC Analyst Agent: Aggregates and prioritizes network alerts (IDS/IPS, firewall logs, NetFlow data) based on severity, matching them to known attack signatures or TTPs
- Incident Responder Agent: Oversees the remediation process, leveraging correlated data to confirm if an alert is a true positive or false positive and coordinating further investigation or response
- Threat Intel Analyst Agent: Enriches suspicious IPs, domains, or protocols with threat intelligence (e.g., reputation scores, known malware C2 domains) to determine if alerts indicate genuine threats
- Reporter Agent: Compiles a clear, concise report detailing the nature of the alerts, any malicious indicators, the network context, and recommended containment or remediation steps
