Abstract

Case grouping thresholds are implemented to keep cases manageable.

To keep cases manageable, Cortex XSIAM implements case grouping thresholds. When the case reaches a threshold, it stops accepting issues and groups subsequent related issues in a new case.

  • 30 days have passed since case creation.

  • 14 days have passed since the last issue was detected.

  • A case reaches the 1,000 issue limit.

You can track the threshold status in the Issues Grouping Status field in the cases table.

Auto-resolved cases

If a case is resolved with the status Resolved - Auto Resolved, Cortex XSIAM reopens the case within a six-hour window if a matching issue occurs. The six-hour period is defined by the timestamp of the last issue that was grouped into the case. After the six-hour period, any new issues are linked to a new case for a new investigation.
