Supercharge Splunk Enterprise Security with Aura Asset Intelligence
Aura Asset Intelligence integrates with Splunk Enterprise Security to supercharge it with asset insights that greatly increase effectiveness, accuracy and security visibility.
Seamless Integration with Splunk Enterprise Security
Aura Asset Intelligence is a standalone premium Splunk application that offers industry leading asset discovery and intelligence using Splunk. However, customers who also have Splunk Enterprise Security can seamlessly integrate Aura, allowing for its powerful asset discovery and intelligence capabilities to be utilized by Enterprise Security. The complementary functionality and capabilities provided by Aura help to greatly increase the accuracy, effectiveness, and security visibility within Splunk Enterprise Security.
Supercharged Features for Splunk Enterprise Security
Integration with Aura Asset Intelligence supercharges several key features of Splunk Enterprise Security, which are outlined in more detail below.
- Continuously Updating Asset and Identity Inventories
- Enhanced Asset & Identity Investigator Swimlanes
- Notable Event Enrichment with Complete Asset Context
- One-Click Asset and Identity Investigations
- Accurate Association of Assets to Events During Investigations
- Access to Comprehensive Asset & Identity Reporting
Continuously Updating Asset and Identity Inventories
Assets are constantly evolving and changing. A static or infrequently updated asset inventory, as is typically used with Splunk Enterprise Security, starts becoming stale as soon as it is created. Aura continually discovers the assets and identities on your network and constantly updates the inventories in Splunk Enterprise Security, to ensure they stay up to date, complete and accurate.
Enhanced Asset & Identity Investigator Swimlanes
In a DHCP network environment, IP addresses are frequently reassigned to assets over time. Dedicated Aura Asset Intelligence Swimlanes in the Asset and Identity Investigator views of Splunk Enterprise Security quickly illustrate the true asset changes over time, rather than the default approach of simply assuming the same asset is assigned to an IP over time.
Notable Event Enrichment with Complete Asset Context
When correlation searches trigger Notable Events in Splunk Enterprise Security, assets or identities within those notables are often associated with stale, inaccurate or incomplete asset information. The asset information continually provided by Aura, ensures that your triggered notable events are enriched correctly, with accurate and complete asset data, to provide with much needed context to help expedite your subsequent security investigations and make decisions quickly and easily.
One-Click Asset and Identity Investigations
While using Splunk Enterprise Security you may come across IP addresses, hostnames or even users within the app that you want to quickly investigate. Rather than finding and loading a specific dashboard; integration with Aura Asset Intelligence provides instant one-click asset investigations from wherever you may be in the app. For example, one-click investigate from your search results or when reviewing notable events. Aura provides the asset information you need, when you need it.
Accurate Association of Assets to Events During Investigations
When searching events in Splunk over time during an investigation, you may wish to associate IP addresses within the events you are looking at with the assets they relate to. By default, Splunk Enterprise Security associates only the current asset assigned to that IP, regardless of the timeframe being searched, which is often inaccurate. However, integration with Aura Asset Intelligence provides the ability to quickly and accurately associate IPs to assets over any point in time, thanks to Aura’s comprehensive asset discovery history. This helps cybersecurity teams save hours of effort during investigations.
Access to Comprehensive Asset & Identity Reporting
While Splunk Enterprise Security has some basic asset and identity reporting out of the box, integration with Aura adds an Asset Intelligence menu that allows for complete access to Aura’s comprehensive asset discovery, investigation, intelligence and compliance reporting. Perform powerful asset investigations, understand how asset and identities relate to one another, understand endpoint compliance with your security controls and much more, directly from within the Splunk Enterprise Security app.
The Integration you Need
In summary, integration with Aura Asset Intelligence truly supercharges numerous features within Enterprise Security. The powerful asset discovery and intelligence capabilities of Aura help to ensure that cybersecurity teams have the accurate asset enrichment, context and investigative capabilities they need to do their jobs effectively and efficiently while using Splunk Enterprise Security.
Aura Asset Intelligence runs on Splunk. If you would like to find out more or to get a demo or free trial, please contact us us today.
