Asset Activity with Splunk Asset and Risk Intelligence
Splunk Asset and Risk Intelligence (ARI) provides detailed insights into how active an asset has been over time. Instantly identify who had what asset and when, view any asset changes or even identify unusual asset activity within your network.
Why do we need to track asset activity?
Network assets are akin to living and breathing organisms, as they are constantly changing over time. However, full asset activity history is usually not available. Instead, the current asset state is applied across historic periods of time, resulting in highly inaccurate context and attribution.
Splunk ARI keeps a full and accurate activity history for every asset, along with current asset state. Only with access to an asset’s full activity history can you fully understand the context surrounding the asset, leading to better decision making, faster security investigations and tighter security.
Accurate Asset and Identity Attribution over Time
Splunk ARI has powerful attribution capabilities that allows for quick and accurate attribution of assets and identities to any IP address or to any security event in Splunk across any time period. This replaces significant manual effort and saves hours during security investigations.
For example, instantly identify the assets and identities associated with each of your firewall events, or investigate an IP address and instantly identify all of the assets and identities associated with that IP over a selected time period.
Identify Anomalous Asset Activity
Splunk ARI offers out-of-the-box reporting to help quickly and easily identify asset and user activity that may be anomalous. For example, find users associated with multiple assets over short timeframes, or identify assets that have been recently associated with new users.
View Asset Changes Over Time
Splunk ARI leverages its continous activity history to provide visibility into all asset changes over time. For example, identify the exact point in time when assets changed users, when IP addresses changed, when operating systems were upgraded or even when an asset may have received hardware changes.
Know When Assets Were Discovered
Splunk ARI captures when all assets are first and last discovered on the network, providing powerful insights into both recent and historic activity. For example, quickly identify and investigate new assets that have been discovered in the past week, existing assets that have not been seen for months, or even stale assets that have suddenly sprung back into life.
Track Asset and Identity Locations
Splunk ARI keeps track of all asset and identity locations. Identify the locations of all your assets, whether they are located at your on-premise data centers or at your cloud provider locations. Additionally, quickly locate your users and understand whether they are working remotely from home, from the office, or even abroad.
