Key Features

Automated investigations of incidents

Free up your time and let QRadar Advisor with Watson start the investigation for you. It starts by performing local data mining using observables in the incident to gather broader local context. Then it quickly assesses to see if threats bypassed your layered defenses or was blocked. With watch lists, you can also automate hunting for specific indicators to get a head start.

Artificial intelligence that reasons

Apply cognitive reasoning to identify the likely threat and connect threat entities related to the original incident such as malicious files, suspicious IP addresses, and rogue entities to draw relationships among these entities. Automatically tap into Watson for Cyber Security to apply external unstructured data including threat intelligence feeds, websites, forums, and more.

Identification of high priority risks

Get insights that show criticality of an incident, such as whether or not a malware has executed, with supporting evidence to focus your time on the higher risk threats. Then make a decision quickly on the best response method for your business.

Key insights on users and critical assets

Realize reach of threats and its effects on users and high valued assets. Gain visibility to suspicious behavior from insiders through integration with the User Behavior Analytics (UBA) App and understand how certain activities or profiles impact systems.
