    About this task

    Profiles are created to club capabilities together, and would help Analysts perform the investigation/remediation easily.

    Following are the list of capabilities that you could add to profile(s):
    1. Get Host Details
    2. Get Logged On Users
    3. Get Network Statistics
    4. Get Running Processes
    5. Get Running Services
    6. Get File
    7. Isolate Host
    8. Remove Isolation

    You cannot club Get File, Isolate Host, and Remove Host Isolation capabilities with other capabilities while creating a profile. Profiles for these have to be individually created. On the other hand, Get System Details, Get Logged on Users, Get Network Stats, Get Running Processes, and Get Running Services can be clubbed together. You could create profiles individually or by clubbing them in full or parts as per your need. Once a capability is included in a profile, it cannot be included in another profile.

    To create a new capability profile, follow these steps:

    Procedure

    1. Navigate to FireEye Integration > FireEye Capability Profiles.
      The capability profiles list is displayed.
    2. Click New.
    3. On the form, fill the fields.
      Name Name for the FireEye HX capability profile. This name helps you identify the profile type and describe it.
      Description Additional information about the profile that further describes the profile.
      Source Name of the FireEye HX source. Only configured sources are available from the choice list.
      FireEye HX Capabilities Capabilities of the FireEye HX profile. Select the capabilities you want for this profile from the Available column and move them to the Selected column.
      Order Flow priority. Default is 100. The value of this field indicates the order that Flows are executed when two or more profiles share triggering conditions.

      The Flow with the lowest number has the highest priority.

      To set the order of operation, enter a value. For example, 100, 200, 300, 400.

      Active This indicates that the profile is active. When the profile is active, it automatically triggers when a security incident is created that matches the filtering conditions that you have specified in the configuration.
      The following figure is an example of a completed form for profile details with Get Host Details capability.
    4. Click Next to continue to Profile Configuration.
