Requirements Splunk Enterprise Security
Description Splunk Enterprise Security (ES) is a premium app that extends the Splunk platform to provide security-specific capabilities for monitoring, detecting, and responding to threats within an organization's environment. It integrates data from various sources to enable security analysts to investigate and respond to security incidents effectively. Here are the key frameworks within Splunk Enterprise Security:
1. **Correlation Searches Framework:**
- Correlation searches are pre-built or custom searches designed to identify patterns or sequences of events that may indicate potential security incidents. These searches use complex algorithms to correlate events from different data sources and generate notable events for investigation.
2. **Risk Framework:**
- The Risk Framework in Splunk ES helps organizations assess and quantify risk based on factors such as asset value, vulnerabilities, threat intelligence, and historical attack data. It assigns risk scores to assets and entities within the environment, aiding in prioritizing security efforts.
3. **Adaptive Response Framework:**
- The Adaptive Response Framework allows Splunk ES to interact with external systems and take automated actions in response to security events or incidents. It enables orchestration and automation of response actions across security tools and systems.
4. **Threat Intelligence Framework:**
- This framework integrates with threat intelligence feeds and sources to enrich security data in Splunk ES. It provides context on known threats, indicators of compromise (IOCs), and other threat information to enhance detection and response capabilities.
5. **Investigations Framework:**
- The Investigations Framework provides a centralized interface for security analysts to conduct detailed investigations into security incidents. It allows analysts to pivot across related events, explore correlations, and gather context from disparate data sources within Splunk ES.
6. **Asset and Identity Framework:**
- These frameworks manage and correlate information related to assets (such as devices and applications) and identities (users and entities) within the organization. They provide visibility into asset configurations, vulnerabilities, and user activities for security monitoring and incident response.
7. **Content Management Framework:**
- The Content Management Framework facilitates the deployment, management, and customization of security content within Splunk ES. It includes dashboards, reports, correlation searches, and other content that support security monitoring and operations.
8. **Incident Review Framework:**
- This framework provides capabilities for managing and reviewing security incidents within Splunk ES. It includes workflows for incident triage, tracking, and resolution, ensuring that security incidents are properly documented and addressed.
These frameworks collectively provide a comprehensive approach to security operations within Splunk ES, enabling organizations to detect, investigate, and respond to security threats effectively. They leverage Splunk's powerful data analytics capabilities to deliver actionable insights and improve overall security posture.
