- Version 10.4.9 - November 2023
- Fixed: The Restricted Caller Access (RCA) record causing duplicate entries when the source was trying to access the target source has been deleted. The platform was reading RCA to check whether cross-scope access is allowed for the target resource, and that's when it noticed a duplicate entry and displayed an error.
- Version 10.4.8 - May 2023
-
- Fixed:
- One-Time Retrieval was not working on the scheduling page in the profile when you change the date format to DD-MM-YYYY.
- Arcsight event ingestion is truncating values when the ID fields are 19 or more digits.
- Fixed:
- Version 10.4.6 - September 2022
-
- Fixed:
- Improve the logging for ArcSight ESM Event Ingestion.
- POL_ON tabs were greying out on clicking the continue button.
- Fixed:
- Version 10.4.5 - May 2022
-
- Fixed:
- When there is a Business Rule on Observable/CI, and task M2M records which update the SIR fields automatically. This occurs since SIR was not persisted at the creation time using SIEM, and the SIR fields are not getting updated. Now SIR would persist first in DB, and then the M2M records are created.
- Records were not getting parsed if only one event was generated in ArcSight.
- Fixed:
- Version 10.4.4 - December 2021
- Fixed: UI changes.
- Version 10.4.2 - August 2020

- Version 10.0.5 - March 2020
- ArcSight ESM is a market-leading solution for collecting, correlating, and reporting on security event information. This integration with ArcSight ESM will be used automate ingestion of correlated events from ArcSight and improve the ability to automate creation of security incidents in the ServiceNow platform through dynamic mapping.
