Splunk Search

How to create a correlation search that would trigger an alert for a search?

I need to create a correlation search that would trigger an alert if it found a match from IPs from:

| inputlookup ip_spywarelist.csv  against an indexer (i.e: index=FW)

Any step-by-step guidance?

Hi @Kitag345,

if you have the Splunk Enterprise Security, you can add this lookup to the ones used in the Threat Intelligence Monitoring.

If you haven't it, you can run a simple search like this:

if the field in the lookup for searching is "IP", you can run something like this:

index=fw [ | inputlookup ip_spywarelist.csv | rename IP AS query | fields query ]

in this way you perform a full text search on that index to find any occurrence of the IP field in your lookup.

Ciao.

Giuseppe
