IdentifyAnomalies and Prompt Templates
The tool runs the Identify Anomalies prompt template. The prompt template acts as a security analyst:
- Identifies unusual patterns, including unexpected login behaviors, data access spikes, and privilege escalations.
- Correlates data across multiple sources to detect security anomalies.
- Filters false positives to ensure accurate threat detection.
- Provides structured output that includes severity levels, risk assessments, and recommended remediation actions.
Guidelines and Considerations
IdentifyAnomalies analyzes multiple data sources, including security alerts,
metrics, and threat detection events.
- Categorizes anomalies by High, Medium, or Low severity with specific details and risk assessments.
- Focuses on genuine security concerns rather than routine events.
- Includes specific user information and recommended remediation steps in the results.
- Returns a clear "No Security Anomalies Detected" message when the system detects no anomalies.
