WHAT’S NEW

SIGNAL TAGGING - SIMPLIFY YOUR ALERT ANALYSIS

Signal tagging is a new feature that helps users assign tags to signals, Tags can be used for different types of classifications such as the type of threat or threat campaign, APT group etc. This makes it easier to organize alerts and locate specific ones quickly. Signal tagging also enhances collaboration among team members by providing a common language and framework for discussing alerts. This leads to better communication and teamwork when analyzing and responding to threats. You could also use signal tagging to classify signals and then use tags for secondary detection to connect threats and uncover campaigns.

INFORMATICS - SEE THE BIG PICTURE IN ONE PLACE

The updated landing page after user login offers a centralized view of crucial data pertaining to your platform, making it convenient to monitor essential metrics like license usage, EPS, search utilization, online storage, streamed workbooks, MITRE ATT&CK tactic and technique coverage, collection status, and stream status. You can also access this page by clicking on the DNIF logo at the top left corner of the console.

This new feature will allow you to get instant insights into your environment's performance and identify and address any issues or inefficiencies. The user-friendly interface makes it easy to track your environment with ease and optimize resource usage.

TRACK YOUR CHANGES WITH WORKBOOK VERSIONING

Our latest release introduces a powerful new feature that enables you to track changes and revisions made to workbooks over time. With this feature, you can view a version number next to the workbook name, and with a single click, access a side panel displaying all available versions of the workbook, complete with details such as date/time, author, and commit message. Restoring an older version of the workbook is also made easy with a simple click of a button. This feature allows you to confidently make changes to workbooks, knowing that you can easily restore earlier versions if needed, and provides greater flexibility and control over your workflows.

OKTA SSO: SIMPLIFIED AUTHENTICATION AND STREAMLINED ACCESS

We have introduced SAML authentication support in DNIF HYPERCLOUD. SAML (Security Assertion Markup Language) allows for seamless integration with identity providers, such as Okta, to provide a secure and streamlined login experience.

ENHANCEMENTS

STREAMLINED PASSWORD RESET PROCESS

Forgetting a password can be frustrating, but we've got you covered with our new "Forgot Password" feature! With just a few clicks, you can reset your password and get back to using our platform hassle-free.

SIMPLIFYING PRICING PLAN MANAGEMENT

When attempting to access a feature that is not included in your current plan, you will be seamlessly directed to a landing page that prompts you to upgrade to a higher plan.

FIND WHAT YOU NEED FASTER WITH STREAM FILTERING

This new feature is designed to make it even easier to find the streams you need to search. With Stream Filtering, you'll only see active streams, reducing clutter and confusion. This means you can quickly and easily identify the streams you need, saving you time and improving your overall experience.

STAY AHEAD OF DATA CONSUMPTION

We've made it even easier for you to manage your data consumption with our new Usage Page! You can easily track your current usage, detect any areas of overuse or underuse, and make informed decisions.

You can also maximize your resources, reduce costs, and ensure uninterrupted access to essential services. We're always striving to make your experience with DNIF HYPERCLOUD as efficient and effective as possible, and the Usage Page is just one way we're doing that.

FINAL THOUGHTS

We hope these new features will help you work more effectively and efficiently, and we're committed to continuing to improve the DNIF HYPERCLOUD experience for all of our users. As always, if you have any questions or feedback, please don't hesitate to reach out to our support team. Thank you for choosing DNIF HYPERCLOUD!
