Is there a list with recommended indexes for Security Essentials?

Hi, 

is there a list with recommended indexes for Security Essentials? I have to build a PoC in a greenfield deployment and would like to create the indexes in a way that they are also usable in Enterprise Security.

thanks

Alex

Enterprise Security has a few required indexes, which you can find in the installation instructions.  SSE, however, has neither required nor recommended indexes.  That's because it and ES use *your* indexes where *you* choose to store *your* data in a way that makes the most sense to *you*.  If the data is onboarded in CIM-compliant ways and properly tagged then ES will find it.  In SSE, just edit the searches to use your index names (it's not a Production tool, anyway).
