The data is not being parsed as JSON due to the non-json construct at the start of your event (2020-03-09T..other content... darktrace - - -.The raw data has to be pure json format in order to parsed automatically by Splunk.

Do you have KV_mode=json set in your props.conf?

Seeing two different _time formats here. I see 2020-03-09T 14:30:39+00:00 and then I am also seeing epoch times in "firstSeen"1538579956000, "lastSeen"1583764287000 and "time".

Is this a partial log file? Are you only trying to load this snippet of a log in to splunk or the entire log file?
