Cyware Situational Awareness Platform

View Alert Heat Map

The heatmap displays tactics and techniques based on alerts created from the Analyst Portal. While creating an alert, the analysts can fill in the tactic, technique, and sub-technique details that correspond to the alert. These alerts are correlated and mapped in the ATT&CK Navigator.

For example, if you select Persistence as the tactic and Application Shimming as the technique while creating an alert, the same can be visualized in the alert heatmap.

The columns in the heatmap are organized based on tactics defined by MITRE. The number of times a particular tactic is reported in an alert is displayed near the tactic name.

The rows in the heatmap are organized based on techniques defined by MITRE. The number of times a particular technique is reported in an alert is displayed near the technique name. Additionally, you can also view the sub-techniques associated with the corresponding tactic-technique pair.
