Dashboards & Visualizations

I've got some information I'd like to turn into panels - am I going about this correctly?

Hi All,

I've been using the Splunk Add-on for Tenable to import the network scans from Nessus Professional. This part works great, searches are fine. I wanted to go to the next step and create a dashboard with all my critical vulnerabilities and how many IPs are affected.

I've managed to kludge together a query to get a nice looking table - but can't seem to take the next step into:

  1. Taking each signature and creating a panel out of it
  2. Get the number of IPs that are affected by said signature as a sigle value in the panel for the signature

Right now my query is

sourcetype="nessus" OR sourcetype="nessus:scan" (severity="critical") | stats values(signature) as signature by dest, severity

It comes out with a table

dest severity signature
10.128.20.10 critical Apache 2.0.x < 2.0.48 Multiple Vulnerabilities (OF, Info Disc.)
PHP Unsupported Version Detection

Is this the best way to get to my requirement? Not sure how to integrate this into a panel.

Thanks for your help

The Save As dashboard panel on the RHS of the screen is how you can convert your search results into a dashboard panel

Perhaps you want to have a distinct count of the IP's by signature, dest, severity?

sourcetype="nessus" OR sourcetype="nessus:scan" (severity="critical") | stats dc(IP) by dest, severity, signature 

The above would assume your IP field is called "IP" and that you want it split by all three of those items...
