How it is used

Programs count "Incident opened and attributed to the person" per person from SIEM, SOAR & incident tickets and read it beside the other Readiness and response signals; it feeds 0 cohorts, 0 sequences and 10 breach scenarios.

A "incident opened and attributed to the person" record is evidence of what reaches the person (the threat side of the model). It says nothing on its own about what the person did.
