ARCHITECTURE: [PASTE SYSTEM_ARCHITECTURE]
Provide:
1. Design system (Colors, typography, spacing)
2. Component hierarchy (Alert cards, Threat map, Log viewer, Metrics)
3. Screen-by-screen breakdown (Dashboard, Alert Detail, Investigation, Reports)
4. Real-time data display (Live alerts, Threat feed, Metrics)
5. Severity indicators (Critical, High, Medium, Low)
6. Loading states (Skeletons, spinners)
7. Error states (Data unavailable, Connection lost)
8. Empty states (No alerts, No data)
9. Responsive design guidelines (Desktop-first for SOC)
10. Accessibility considerations (Contrast, Color blindness)
Keep the UI simple, clean, and realistic for a 24-48 hour hackathon.
Focus on demonstrating the core detection and response journey.
