Which feature of correlation searches is used to throttle the creation of notable events?

The feature of correlation searches that is used to throttle the creation of notable events is window duration. This setting defines the length of time during which events are analyzed for correlation, effectively controlling the time frame in which notable events can be triggered.

By specifying a window duration, administrators can limit the number of events that are generated and reported as notable, preventing an overwhelming influx of alerts that could occur if events were analyzed over an unbounded or excessively long period. This ensures that the notable events produced are relevant and manageable, allowing security analysts to focus on the most critical threats without being inundated by noise.

While rate limiting and threshold setting also contribute to the management of notable events, they do not directly control the time frame for event consideration—this is specifically the role of the window duration. Event limitations relate more to the quantity of events processed rather than the temporal aspect that window duration governs.
