Common questions
Does buying AI SOC Analyst include Watchtower?
Watchtower is described as an additional service that supplies human review and optional response execution. Confirm it separately in the order.
Does this replace a SIEM?
No. Prophet queries the tools and data sources your team connects. Those systems still need their own collection, detection and administration.
