Map detections to frameworks such as MITRE ATT&CK, and reduce false positives through regular content tuning. Work with SOC, SRE, and application teams to gather requirements and turn them into actionable content. Performance Analyze and optimize SPL, including slow searches, expensive dashboards, and inefficient scheduled searches. Tune data model acceleration, summary indexing, report acceleration, and search scheduling to reduce load. Monitor platform performance with the Monitoring Console and internal logs (search concurrency, skipped searches, indexing latency, queue blocking, resource usage). Optimize ingestion through sourcetype and props/transforms tuning, event filtering, and index design. Establish search and content standards, review peer content, and educate users on efficient SPL.
