correlating-security-events-in-qradar
Correlates security events in IBM QRadar SIEM using AQL (Ariel Query Language), custom rules, building blocks, and offense management to detect multi-stage attacks across network, endpoint, and application log sources. Use when SOC analysts need to investigate QRadar offenses, build correlation rules, or tune detection logic for reducing false positives.

# Correlating Security Events in QRadar
## When to Use
Use this skill when:
- SOC analysts need to investigate QRadar offenses and correlate events across multiple log sources
- Detection engineers build custom correlation rules to identify multi-stage attacks
- Alert tuning is required to reduce false positive offenses and improve signal quality
- The team migrates from basic event monitoring to behavior-based correlation
**Do not use** for log source onboarding or parsing — that requires QRadar administrator access and DSM editor knowledge.
## Prerequisites
- IBM QRadar SIEM 7.5+ with offense management enabled
