Investigations are the base for knowledge sharing in the Security Operations application. Users will create an investigation when something strange is detected on the Overview Dashboard, or in the Triage or Hunting areas, and then can perform a deeper investigation around the problem or simply write the first impressions and assign the investigation to a specialist in this kind of threat.

  • In the Investigations area, click the yellow + icon. In this case, you can only create investigations from scratch.

  • In the Triage area, after filtering alerts, you can click the Add to investigation button next to each group of alerts to create an investigation related to those alerts. All the elements you add to an investigation in this way will be added to the Investigation list, which you can access by clicking the paper clip icon at the top right corner of the application. Learn more about the Investigation list.
