In the Splunk App for PCI Compliance, why are my PCI Dashboards without data?

Hi all,

I have installed the PCI module, and I have followed the implementation steps (https://docs.splunk.com/Documentation/PCI/3.7.2/Install/ConfigurePCIDSSDomains), but I do not get any data in the PCI dashboards — any clue?

I have the following scenario:

1 splunk server with PCI app installed, with IP xxx.xxx.204.136

1 Domain controller (win 2012) with IP xxx.xxx.204.200 (the domain is mydomain.com)

1 Windows server with a splunk forwarder IP xxx.xxx.204.199; I have deployed

I have ADD data from a Splunk forwarder, and I have selected sources Local Events Source (Applications, Forwarder events, security, setup and system), one by one with PCI index.

In Splunk, I have uploaded the assets via CSV file, and I can see in the App PCI - Assets Center :

ip,mac,nt_host,dns,owner,priority,lat,long,city,country,bunit,category,pci_domain,is_expected,should_timesync,should_update,requires_av

xxx.xxx.204.199,00:0C:29:24:0F:88,WINSRV2012FW,,imontano,high,,,Dallas,USA,americas,pci,untrust,false,false,false,false

In Splunk, I have uploaded the identities via a CSV file, and I can see in the App PCI - Identity Center :

identity,prefix,nick,first,last,suffix,email,phone,phone2,managedBy,priority,bunit,category,watchlist,startDate,endDate,work_city,work_country,work_lat,work_long

imontano,Mr,imontano,ivan,montano,,imontano@mydomain.com,44199,44199,imontano,high,americas,pci,false,,,Dallas,USA,37.3382,121.8863

When I go to the PCI Compliance Posture, I can see all the indicators in green without data.

In Notable Events By Owner — Last 24 Hours, over owner I got "unassigned," but I have configured the assets and identities.

Any clues?

AFAIK, these dashboards are filled solely with data from "notable events". To create these events you have to enable the corresponding correlation searches in the App's configuration.
