Description

Integration with VMware Carbon Black EDR is created to fetch the details of incidents created on the VMware Carbon Black EDR platform, along with metadata. This enables CDC users to have additional information to make informed decisions during incident response.

VMware Carbon Black EDR collects and visualizes comprehensive information about endpoint events, giving security professionals’ unparalleled visibility into IT environments.

We have provisioned configuration options to CDC users to :

  1. Configure alert filter criteria to ingest only those alerts that match the set criteria. For example: {"category": ["THREAT"]}.

  2. Limit the number of alerts to be injected in the CDC via the UI configuration field alert_limit.

  3. Filter out alerts on the basis of tags via UI configuration. Tags are compared with reason_code and if a match is found, those alerts are not injected in the CDC. For example: Filter_tags : ["tag_1", "tag_2"]. Alerts with empty reason codes are injected to the CDC with default tags.

  4. Filter out alerts on the basis of alert name via UI configuration. Configured names of alerts are treated as case insensitive for filtration.

  5. Filter out observables via the UI configuration field observable_filter_config. For example: {"filter_key":["major_version","platform_id"]}.

When an alert is closed on the CDC with the dismiss parameter and dismissal reasons, the corresponding alert on VMware Carbon Black is also closed with all required metadata, using our automation.
