Exactly what happens between an alert and a decision
Ward is not another source of noise. It plugs into the queue you already have and does the same repetitive work on every alert: gathering context, enriching the case, and writing the guidance. The analyst gets a case — the alert already enriched and written up — not a raw record.
How Ward gathers context and classifies the case
Ahead-of-time enrichment first, then Ward AI with JIT tools on the classify path — and a proposed disposition for the analyst.
From alert to closed case
Six steps from Sentinel to a decision. Ward prepares the case and proposes the disposition — the analyst makes the final call.
- 01Incidents arrive from Microsoft Sentinel. Ward shapes them into one case — the same fields whatever the input — before the analyst opens the queue.
- Microsoft Sentinel ingest
- One case with related alerts and entities
- The pipeline starts right away

What the machine does, and what stays with the human
The most common question in a demo is “where does the automation stop”. Here is the exact line — at every stage of the process.
Intake
Ward
Picks the alert off the Sentinel queue and normalizes the fields into one case.
Analyst
Nothing to do — work on the case starts right away.
Gathering context
Ward
Adds threat intelligence and Microsoft sources: accounts, hosts, addresses, mail, and related alerts.
Analyst
Sees every source used and can retry the ones that did not arrive.
Risk score
Ward
Scores ARC and marks what is critical.
Analyst
Uses the score to set the order of the queue.
Guidance
Ward
Writes the classification, the open questions, and the recommendations, sources included.
Analyst
Reads, edits, or rejects it — the decision is theirs.
Close and trail
Ward
Records the decision and, on a successful close, writes it back to Sentinel.
Analyst
Approves the classification, the reason, and the comment.
Nothing closes on its own. The analyst approves the classification, and the case goes to the archive.
