Research abstract
Alert fatigue is a major pain point for cybersecurity organizations today. Analysts are constantly overwhelmed by cybersecurity alerts leading to disinterest, boredom, and misclassifications (false negative and missed incidents) due to the resulting fatigue. Failing success with automation, many organizations have resorted to turning off high-volume events to minimize the effects of alert fatigue, leading to even more misses. There is an opportunity to present a more engaging and effective environment in which to address security events by leveraging factors that are naturally more familiar to the human mind. This is where Windsor Security is able to offer a unique approach. By gamifying cybersecurity analysis and incident response, we will natively offer a level of engagement for analysts not found elsewhere in cybersecurity solutions today.
