Unlocking AI-Driven Threat Detection: The Power of Signal-to-Noise Ratio (SNR)
In the realm of cybersecurity, optimizing AI-driven threat detection is crucial for safeguarding against evolving cyber threats. Two key metrics play a vital role in this endeavor: Mean Time to Detect (MTTD) and Mean Time to Respond (MTTR). MTTD measures the time elapsed between the occurrence of a security incident and its detection by the AI system, while MTTR measures the time taken by the incident response team to contain and remediate the threat. However, there's another crucial metric that assesses the accuracy of AI models: Signal-to-Noise Ratio (SNR).
SNR is a statistical measure that calculates the ratio of the signal (true positives) to the noise (false positives). In the context of AI-driven threat detection, a higher SNR indicates a better signal (true positives) and a lower noise (false positives), resulting in more accurate threat detection. For instance, a Signal-to-Noise Ratio (SNR) ...
