Detection Rule Validation

Continuously Validate and Optimize your Detection Rules

In recent years, the volume of alerts, and logs, that security teams have to deal with has increased exponentially. Organizations are collecting more data than ever, and new and more sophisticated threats are constantly emerging. In this cycle, developing new detection rules becomes increasingly difficult. 

Picus Detection Rule Validation (DRV) enables security teams to stay on top of the detection rule baseline and automate manual detection engineering processes in order to achieve continuous and proactive detection rule validation.

Picus Detection Rule Validation Technology Integrations

Integrations with leading security vendors help to improve the detection engineering process to building, testing, and updating detections for both new and existing rules.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is Detection Rule Validation? red-arrow

Detection Rule Validation is a standalone application that analyses rules to identify quality and performance issues and provides strong benefits to SOC teams such as process automation, rule development, and correct log resource management.

Which SIEM Solutions does Detection Rule Validation Integrate With? red-arrow

Detection Rule Validation integrates with Splunk SIEM. More integrations will be added regularly. Please inquire for more information.

Why is it Important to Validate Detection Rules? red-arrow

Due to a lack of adequate resources and qualified personnel, a SOC team typically only performs only one manual assessment once over a six-month period. SOC teams find it difficult to remain current on a large number of rules, and new rules cannot be adequately tested.

How Regularly Should Detection Rule Validation be Performed? red-arrow

After starting the first of the continuous assessments, the best practice is to examine the results of the assessment and prioritize the improvement insights in the rules according to the insight categories, improve the rules, see the improvements made in the next assessment and repeat the cycle.
