FBIgov and CXD
FBIgov — noun
Definition - A name for someone who treats EDR like a federal investigation. FBIgov is the type of person who sees one suspicious alert and immediately starts digging through process trees, command lines, timestamps, files, accounts, and network activity. Nothing is “just an alert” to them—they want the entire story behind it. The joke is that FBIgov can turn one unusual endpoint event into a full investigation. Basically, the FBI of the EDR dashboard.
Example: “bro saw one alert and activated FBIgov mode.”
CXD — noun
Definition - A name for someone who specializes in connecting the dots. CXD represents the analyst who takes pieces of EDR telemetry and turns them into one coherent timeline. They look at processes, events, timestamps, authentication activity, and connections to figure out how everything relates. While everyone else sees individual alerts, CXD sees the board. Basically, the person who finds the connection nobody else noticed.
Example: “Nobody understood the alert until CXD connected everything.”

FBIgov and CXD are two people who take the investigation of EDR anomalies incredibly seriously. Both parties investigate and piece together what other people would see as an "Unimportant alert" they instead immediately get to investigating Process trees and logs for endpoints
