Cognitive Intelligence changing its name to global threat alerts
As part of Cisco’s continuous efforts to bring more clarity into our security portfolio, Cognitive Intelligence will be changing its name to global threat alerts. You will start seeing the new name in the web interface, documentation, and other places soon.
Starting February 2nd, the new web interface with alert fusion will be the default view
The alert fusion interface, introduced last summer as a beta version accessible using the early access switch, will now be the default view of the web interface.

Due to the changes in the way that alerts are fused together, the global threat alerts (formerly Cognitive Intelligence) widget in Secure Network Analytics (formerly Stealthwatch Enterprise) is also changing its look.

Open search box
In order to ease your threat investigations, now you can use the open search box to quickly filter and find alerts for a specific username, client IP address, asset group, or type of threat.

New descriptions added for command-injection classifier
This anomaly will trigger if a specific pattern is found in the user agent of the http request. The presence of these patterns gives us certainty that the webpage was accessed with the intention of exploiting a vulnerability. This can signal recognition steps in order to initiate an attack against that web page.
This anomaly can be seen in Alert -> Alert detail -> Anomalies
