Checking for blacklist association

The following procedure explains how the Security Analytics Engine checks the username and IP address attempting to access an application for a blacklist association.

How the Security Analytics Engine checks for blacklist association

  1. A user attempts to access an application that uses an Associated w/ Blacklist condition type to check if the username or IP address is associated with a blacklist.

    		 NOTE: If there is no user ID or IP address available, or the IP address is in a configured DynamicNetwork range, checking the selected blacklists is not relevant. Therefore, the request is considered not associated with a blacklist and the risk score is not affected.
  2. The Security Analytics Engine compares the username and IP address against the SonicWALL records that were detected within the specified number of days to check. If this check returns as false (there is no record associated with a blacklist during that time frame), the request is not considered associated with a blacklist and the risk score is not affected.
  3. If this check returns as true (there is a record associated with a blacklist that fits all the parameters), the request is considered associated with a blacklist and the risk score is increased.

Associated w/ Country

 NOTE: This condition is associated with the SonicWALLPlugin type which requires that the Security Analytics Engine Installer - SonicWALL Processor Service.msi and SonicWALL firewall be installed and configured. See the Security Analytics Engine SonicWALL Configuration Guide for more information.

 NOTE: The SonicWALLPlugin is associated with this condition and provides important settings.

Categorized as a Behavior condition, this type of condition always causes the risk score to increase if the user or IP address is associated with malware in a specified country. The following parameters are available:

Checking for country association

The following procedure explains how the Security Analytics Engine checks the user and IP address attempting to access an application for an association with activity in a specified country.

How the Security Analytics Engine checks for country association

  1. A user attempts to access an application that uses an Associated w/ Country condition type to check if the username or IP address is associated with activity in a specified country.

    		 NOTE: If there is no user ID or IP address available, or the IP address is in a configured DynamicNetwork range, checking for country association is not relevant. Therefore, the request is considered not associated with activity and the risk score is not affected.
  2. The Security Analytics Engine compares the username and IP address against the records that were detected within the specified number of days to check. If this check returns as false (there is no record associated with activity during that time frame), the request is not considered to come from a user or IP address associated with activity in a specified country and the risk score is not affected.
  3. If this check returns as true (there is a record of activity for that username or IP address in that country that fits all the parameters), the request is considered associated with the country and the risk score is increased.

Associated w/ Malware

 NOTE: This condition is associated with the SonicWALLPlugin type which requires that the Security Analytics Engine Installer - SonicWALL Processor Service.msi and SonicWALL firewall be installed and configured. See the Security Analytics Engine SonicWALL Configuration Guide for more information.

 NOTE: The SonicWALLPlugin is associated with this condition and provides important settings.

Checking for malware association

The following procedure explains how the Security Analytics Engine checks the username and IP address attempting to access an application for an association with malware.

How the Security Analytics Engine checks for malware association

  1. A user attempts to access an application that uses an Associated w/ Malware condition type to check if the username or IP address is associated with malware.

    		 NOTE: If there is no user ID or IP address available, or the IP address is in a configured DynamicNetwork range, checking for malware is not relevant. Therefore, the request is considered not associated with malware and the risk score is not affected.
  2. The Security Analytics Engine compares the username and IP address against the malware records that were detected within the specified number of days to check. If this check returns as false (there is no record associated with malware during that time frame), the request is not considered associated with malware and the risk score is not affected.
  3. If this check returns as true (there is a record associated with malware that fits all the parameters), the request is considered associated with malware and the risk score is increased.

Authentication List

 NOTE: The BuiltinPlugin is associated with this condition and provides important settings.

Categorized as a Behavior condition, this type of condition determines the method of authentication used for access. The following parameters are available:

Table 13: Authentication List parameters
Parameter Description Associated default conditions

Identifier

Enter a name for the condition.

Weak Authentication (Default)

Strong Authentication (Default)

Description

Enter a description for the condition.

Weak Authentication (Default)

  • Request used a weak method of authentication.

Strong Authentication (Default)

  • Request used a strong method of authentication.

Risk Type Value

Select the impact the condition will have on the risk score:

  • Can increase risk - Selecting this option causes the risk score to increase if the access attempt comes from a listed authentication method.
  • Can decrease risk - Selecting this option causes the condition score to decrease if the access attempt comes from a listed authentication method. A condition with this setting can only be used as a modifier in a risk policy.
  • Can both increase or decrease risk - Selecting this check box allows you to configure the risk score to either increase or decrease.

NOTE: In order to avoid application configuration errors, this parameter cannot be edited once the condition has been saved.

Weak Authentication (Default)

Checking for an authentication method

The following procedure explains how the Security Analytics Engine checks the method of authentication used during an access attempt.

How the Security Analytics Engine checks for an authentication method

  1. A user attempts to access an application that uses an Authentication List condition type to check the method of authentication used for access.
  2. The Security Analytics Engine checks if this access attempt is from one of the specified methods of authentication. If this check returns as false (it is not from a specified method), the risk score is not affected.
  3. If the check returns as true (it does use a specified method), the risk score is affected.
