Hi Everyone

I'm very pleased to announce that we have just released the IBM QRadar Use Case Manager to the App Exchange. You can download it from here . This new app is free to download for QRadar users and is bursting with lots of features to help you tune and manage your use cases in QRadar. Lets take a quick look here at some of the key features. 

1. Do you want to access your security posture against one of the most adopted frameworks out there, MITRE ATT&CK? This framework has been widely adopted by security experts and industries around the world. With the QRadar Use Case Manager we have you covered. 

With hundreds of out of the box use cases downloadable from the App Exchange pre mapped to Mitre Tactics and Techniques. You can start implementing your framework coverage and addressing your security posture. This has all been made very easy within the QRadar Use Case Manager. Simply point and click.

2. Need help managing your use cases in QRadar. Whether you are interacting daily with your use cases in QRadar, downloading new use cases from the IBM Security App Exchange or been given the task of managing an existing set designed by somebody else. QRadar Use Case Manager is there to help. Easy to use filtering allows users the ability to navigate down to the exact point of a rule in QRadar to see what needs changed or updated.

3. Managing/Updating your use cases is very important but keeping them tuned is key! Your analysts need to be actioning the correct insights and not looking at false positives. With the Tuning section inside Use Case Manager we help with environment setup, rules generating the most offenses and provide insights into the key areas of your rules that may need your attention and tweaking.
