    Before you begin

    Role required: ServiceNow AI Platform security incident administrator (sn_si.admin)

    About this task

    The security tag names in your McAfee ePO console for the initiate malware scan and isolate host actions must match the security tag names in the records for these capabilities of your ServiceNow AI Platform instance.

    Before you create a capability profile to run your capabilities, view the list of available McAfee ePO capabilities and edit the security tags in your ServiceNow AI Platform instance so that they match the security tag names in your McAfee ePO console.

    For more information about creating the security tag names in your McAfee ePO console, see Set up your McAfee ePO console to integrate with Security Incident Response (SIR).

    Procedure

    1. Navigate to All > McAfee ePO Integration > Default Settings.
    2. To edit the security tag name of the McAfee ePO integration, click Default Configuration.
      Note:
      Makes sure you perform this configuration after you install the McAfee ePO integration.
    3. In the Initiate Malware Scan Tag Name field, enter the name of the security tag that you created in your McAfee ePO console for the initiate scan action.
      For example, ServiceNow - Malware Scan
    4. In the Isolate Host Tag Name field, enter the name of the security tag that you created in your McAfee ePO console for the isolate host action.
      For example, ServiceNow - Isolate Host
    5. If you want to do not wish to use the CI trigger field upon incident creation, select the Define Alternate field check box.
      When this option is enabled, the Alternate CI trigger field choice list is displayed.

    6. Choose an alternate field from the choice list to check for your CI search criteria.
      For this example, as a user with the sn_si.admin role, you believe that the CI field will not be populated on the security incident upon incident creation. Alternatively, you think CI information for a FQDN, host name, or IP address will be populated in the Identified CI field on the security incident, and you select the Identified CI field as an alternate. The Identified CI is selected for this example, but you can use any field on the security incident for the alternate CI.
    7. In the Domain field, select a domain or group for this configuration using the search option.
      For example, global.
    8. In the Require Approval field, select the Require Approval check box if you are using Isolate Host and Remove isolation capabilities.
      Note:
      The Initiate Malware Scan, List Threat Events, and Get System Details capabilities do not need approval.
    9. Click Update.
      The EPO Tag Name is updated and displayed on the McAfee ePO Default Configurations list. The security tag name for the malware scan action in your ServiceNow AI Platform instance matches the name for the scan in your McAfee ePO console.

      You have successfully edited the EPO Tag Names for the malware scan and the isolate host capabilities in your ServiceNow AI Platform instance. The next step is to create a profile for your capabilities.
