Abstract

An information technology (IT) and security operations application enables the automatic assignment of incident events to analysts based on a variety of characteristics of the incident events to be assigned, the analysts and analyst teams, and other considerations. An IT and security operations application can perform the automatic assignment of incident events based at least in part on data indicating each analyst's knowledge of certain types of incidents, data indicating each analyst's efficiency at responding to certain types of incidents, and the like, where such data is automatically created and maintained by the application. In this manner, incident events can be efficiently assigned to analysts upon their receipt by the system without the need for a security team to constantly perform a cumbersome incident event assignment process based on a limited set of data, thereby improving analyst teams' ability to efficiently ensure the operation and security of IT environments for which the teams are responsible.
