Alert fatigue rarely begins inside the SOC. It becomes visible when analysts must interpret alerts that lack the context needed for clear decisions.
Most security operations are built to process alerts at scale, focusing on speed and efficiency. But when alerts arrive without sufficient confidence, analysts are forced to validate and reconstruct context before taking action.
As a result, the focus shifts from how many alerts can be processed to how many are actually ready for decision. This creates a gap between what is detected and what is actionable.
This ebook explores why alert fatigue is a signal quality problem, how detection debt builds over time, and how organizations can move from alert management to signal governance.
