Description

Resolved - True Positive

The case or issue was correctly identified by Cortex Cloud as a real threat, and the case was successfully handled and resolved.

Resolved - False Positive

The case or issue is not a real threat.

Note

Cases and issues resolved as True Positive and False Positive help Cortex Cloud to identify real threats in your environment by comparing future cases and associated issues to the resolved cases. Therefore, the handling and scoring of future cases is affected by these resolutions.
