Splunk Enterprise Security

Enterprise Security incident urgency showing "informational" when I set correlation rule notable to "high"?

Hi folks,

I created a correlation search that looks for administrators setting passwords to never expire, which then creates a notable event for incident review. I tried setting the severity to both "high" and "critical", but when the notable is created the urgency field shows up only as "informational".

When I test the rule, I did it against on accounts that show up as both "high" and "critical" priority in the Identity Investigator, data I enrich via Active Directory.

I checked the lookup table for urgency_lookup and it is as you would expect, nothing is different than the default that would make it calculate to informational. What may I be missing?

 

Thanks!

Hello @ravida, If you have already checked urgency_lookup along with severity and priority of the assets/identities - there is nothing much to check. Except

  • Validate you are looking over and updating the correct correlation search
  • New notables are generated if you have updated priority / severity (Existing urgency would not be updated)
