The CDNA uses information collected from a variety of sources to monitor network activity and analyze it for evidence of suspicious behavior.

- Provide daily summary reports of network events and activity relevant to cyber defense practices
- Receive and analyze network alerts from various sources within the enterprise and determine possible causes of alerts
- Provide timely detection, identification, and alerting of possible attacks/intrusions, anomalous activities, and misuse activities and distinguish these incidents and events from benign activities

- Identify applications and operating systems of a network device based on network traffic
- Reconstruct a malicious attack or activity-based off-network traffic

- Assist in the construction of signatures that can be implemented on cyber defense network tools in response to new or observed threats within the network environment or enclave
- Notify designated managers, cyber incident responders, and cybersecurity service provider team members of suspected cyber incidents and articulate the event's history, status, and potential impact for further action in accordance with the organization's cyber incident response plan
- Prepare and update manuals, instructions, and operating procedures
- Evaluate established methods and procedures and prepare recommendations for changes in methods and practices where appropriate
- Plan and carry out difficult and complex assignments and develop new methods, approaches, and procedures
