 ### Analysis plugins 🔬
 
-Successfully attacking every server in the network is no good unless the Monkey can explain how to prevent the attack. Whether it's detecting when the Monkey is using stolen credentials or when the Monkey can escape locked down networks, this is the part that actually helps secure different parts.
+Successfully attacking every server in the network has little value if the Infection Monkey can't provide recommendations for reducing future risk. Whether it's explaining how the Infection Monkey used stolen credentials or escaped from locked-down networks, analysis is what helps users translate the Infection Monkey's activities into actionable next steps for improving security. 
 
 ### Better code 💪
 
-We always want to improve the core Monkey code, to make it smaller, faster and more reliable. If you have an idea of how to do it, or just want to modularise/improve test coverage for the code, do share!
