From Raw Alerts to Ready Intelligence: Meet the Enrichment Agent

The SOC’s Hidden Time Sink

Security teams aren’t falling behind because they lack alerts — they’re falling behind because they lack clarity. Every suspicious IP, domain, or file hash kicks off the same ritual: a scavenger hunt across a dozen intel feeds, conflicting reports, and endless copy-paste busywork. Instead of responding to threats, analysts spend their day collecting data. The cost? Fatigue. Inconsistency. And missed chances to contain attacks before they spread.

This is the hidden tax of modern SOC operations,  and it’s exactly what the Enrichment Agent was built to eliminate.

Before vs After: The Analyst’s Perspective

Before: Alert Fatigue in Action

• A phishing alert flags a suspicious domain: malicious-portal[.]com.

• An analyst spends 30–40 minutes jumping between WHOIS, VirusTotal, AbuseIPDB, GreyNoise, ThreatFox, and Google Safe Browsing.

• Each tool tells a slightly different story.

• By the time the analyst reaches a conclusion, the attacker may already have moved laterally inside the network.

After: Enrichment Agent at Work

Within seconds of receiving the same domain, the Enrichment Agent delivers a consolidated view:

• WHOIS: Privacy-protected, newly registered domain.

• Passive DNS: Rotating IPs across high-risk ASNs.

• Reputation: Confirmed phishing kit by OpenPhish + deceptive site flagged by Google.

• ThreatFox: Associated with SideWinder APT infrastructure.

• AbuseIPDB: 15 abuse reports in the last 24 hours.

• AI Narrative:
  “This domain is part of an active SideWinder APT phishing campaign using disposable registrars and fast-flux hosting. Verdict: Malicious (High Confidence). Action: Block domain/DNS and investigate related traffic.”

Time to decision: <1 minute.

That’s the power of automation with context.

Why This Matters

The impact of the Enrichment Agent goes beyond shaving minutes off investigations:

• Speed at Scale: Analysts resolve incidents in minutes, even when facing thousands of daily alerts.

• Consistency: Every IOC is enriched against the same intel sources, with a clear and explainable verdict.

• Confidence: AI-generated narratives give analysts and executives the why behind decisions.

• Reduced Fatigue: No more swivel-chair investigations across dozens of tools.

• Stronger Defense: Faster verdicts mean faster containment, limiting attacker dwell time.

Real-World Scenarios

• Phishing: Quickly validate malicious URLs before users click.

• Ransomware: Enrich suspicious IPs to identify known C2 infrastructure in seconds.

• Fraud: Check file hashes and domains against malware repositories to stop insider abuse early.

• Supply Chain Attacks: Correlate indicators from external partners against global threat intelligence instantly.

The Bigger Picture: A Step Toward Autonomy

The Enrichment Agent isn’t just a feature — it’s a building block of AI-native SecOps. By handling the grunt work of data collection and interpretation, it frees analysts to focus on strategy and response. Integrated with Sara, OmniSense, and the rest of our AI-powered ecosystem, the Enrichment Agent is part of a larger shift: from manual automation to autonomous security operations.

Closing: From Noise to Clarity

In a world where attackers move at machine speed, SOCs can’t afford to rely on manual lookups and human memory. The Enrichment Agent represents a new way forward: clarity at speed, context at scale, and confidence in every decision.

Stop hunting for answers. Start acting on them.
