Detection Engineering Program - Part 5 - Example Writing Detections
Writing a Detection: Overview The core of a detection is its analytic logic: the conditions used to evaluate organizational telemetry and identify activity that may be malicious, suspicious, or inconsistent with expected behavior. Detection logic may use one or more analytic methods, including: Matching a specific string, command, file path, event ID, or field value Combining multiple strings, fields, events, or log sources Correlating related activity across identities, endp

Detection Engineering Program - Part 4 - Detection Engineering Design Philosophies
Detection Engineering Design Philosophies At this point in the course, it is useful to take a quick beyond the detection development process and go beyond detection engineering form and process. It is critical to examine the underlying philosophies that make detections more effective, resilient, and operationally valuable. Some detection design requirements are straightforward. As discussed previously, frameworks such as Palantir’s Alerting and Detection Strategy (ADS) estab

Detection Engineering Program - Part 2 - Detection Engineering High Level Frameworks
Detection Engineering Program: High-Level Frameworks As detection engineering has matured, practitioners have developed frameworks to make detection programs more structured, consistent, and measurable. One of the earliest influential models was Palantir’s Alerting and Detection Strategy (ADS) Framework, introduced nearly a decade ago and subsequently refined. The Problem: Inconsistent Detection Practices Historically, many organizations developed custom detections without a
