My SOC lab is drowning in noisy alerts. Where should I start?
Start by baselining: suppress the top 10 noisiest rules, then tune by asset criticality.
This worked for us — false positives dropped ~40%.
Drive it from your alert telemetry — rank rules by volume × fidelity and tune the worst offenders first.
