Security incidents can be created and updated after they are created with a
bi-directional interface with the Splunk Enterprise Security integration.
始める前に
The Splunk Enterprise Security integration has a bi-directional interface that
allows notable events to create security incidents as well as update the notable events
after the security incident is created and/or closed.
Relevant incident details include SIR incident number,
assignment group, SIR incident URL. This section is the
final portion of the profile configuration set-up that provides optional capabilities to
update the Splunk Enterprise Security notable events.
Role required: sn_si.ingestion_profile_admin
注: Users with the sn_si.admin role can perform all operations available to a profile admin, as the sn_si.admin role inherits the required permissions by default.
