Entity Analytics dashboard
editEntity Analytics dashboard
editThe Entity Analytics dashboard provides a centralized view of emerging insider threats - including host risk, user risk, and anomalies from within your network. Use it to triage, investigate, and respond to these emerging threats.
The dashboard includes the following sections:
Entity KPIs (key performance indicators)
editDisplays the total number of critical hosts, critical users, and anomalies. Select a link to jump to the Host risk table, User risk table, or Anomalies table.
Host Risk Scores
editDisplays host risk score data for your environment, including the total number of hosts, and the five most recently recorded host risk scores, with their associated host names, risk classifications, and number of detection alerts. Host risk scores are calculated using a weighted sum on a scale of 0 (lowest) to 100 (highest).
Interact with the table to filter data, view more details, and take action:
- Select the Host risk classification menu to filter the chart by the selected classification.
- Click a host name link to go to the Host details page.
- Hover over a host name link to display inline actions: Add to timeline, which adds the selected value to Timeline, and Copy to Clipboard, which copies the host name value for you to paste later.
- Click View all in the upper-right to display all host risk information on the Hosts page.
-
Click the number link in the Alerts column to view the alerts on the Alerts page. Hover over the number and select Investigate in timeline (
) to launch Timeline with a query that includes the associated host name value.
For more information about host risk scores, refer to Entity risk scoring.
User Risk Scores
editDisplays user risk score data for your environment, including the total number of users, and the five most recently recorded user risk scores, with their associated user names, risk classifications, and number of detection alerts. Like host risk scores, user risk scores are calculated using a weighted sum on a scale of 0 (lowest) to 100 (highest).
Interact with the table to filter data, view more details, and take action:
- Select the User risk classification menu to filter the chart by the selected classification.
- Click a user name link to go to the User details page.
- Hover over a user name link to display inline actions: Add to timeline, which adds the selected value to Timeline, and Copy to Clipboard, which copies the user name value for you to paste later.
- Click View all in the upper-right to display all user risk information on the Users page.
-
Click the number link in the Alerts column to view the alerts on the Alerts page. Hover over the number and select Investigate in timeline () to launch Timeline with a query that includes the associated user name value.
For more information about user risk scores, refer to Entity risk scoring.
Anomalies
editAnomaly detection jobs identify suspicious or irregular behavior patterns. The Anomalies table displays the total number of anomalies identified by these prebuilt machine learning jobs (named in the Anomaly name column).
Interact with the table to view more details:
- Click View all host anomalies to go to the Anomalies table on the Hosts page.
- Click View all user anomalies to go to the Anomalies table on the Users page.
- Click View all to display and manage all machine learning jobs on the Anomaly Detection Jobs page.
