     Relationship Profile

     The entry in this column specifies the strength of the relationship between the events in the event groups that are determined by the algorithm. One value is specified.

     Strong Represents a high confidence level for relationships between events, but fewer events and fewer event groups. Your event groups might be missing weaker related events.

     Medium Represents medium confidence level for relationships between events, average number of events and fewer event groups. Your event groups might be missing weakly related events.

     Weak You see more events and more event groups but potentially more false positives.
