Detection Engineering Program - Part 4 - Detection Testing & Validation
Detection Testing & Validation Detection Measurement Concepts Understanding how to evaluate a detection's performance is essential for tuning rules, prioritizing engineering efforts, and managing SOC efficiency. Key measurement concepts include: 1. Precision (a.k.a. True Positive Rate / Confidence): This measures how many of the triggered alerts are actually true positives. Formula: True Positives / (True Positives + False Positives) High precision means minimal false positi
