Axonius

The Axonius integration will download data about all entities known to Axonius that have a current IP address.

Axonius relies on connections to other vendor platforms, and polls for data every 12 hours by default. Once data has been ingested, a discovery process will correlate data from multiple connectors. The discovery process can take up to four hours to complete.

The Axonius integration will automatically check the status of the discovery process each time the service runs, as querying the Axonius API can have unpredictable results if the discovery process is still processing during the query. In scenarios where the discovery process has not completed, the data cached from the previous successful run will be used, and the API will be queried again on the next service interval.

The interval_hours setting should not be set lower than the Axonius polling frequency. If it’s set to 0, the integration will attempt to download additional content each time the Corelight-update service runs. See Configuration settings

Once downloaded, the data can then be used to create two separate Input Framework files. One file includes CVE information, and the other contains Host information. These files can be used by Zeek scripts to generate new logs, or enrich existing logs, such as the known_hosts.log or suricata_corelight.log.

The input file will be published along with any other input files from other configured integrations, if any. If Corelight-update is configured to push input files, the file will automatically get pushed to the Fleet Manager policy and/or all sensors in the policy. See Push content settings for more details.

Attention

The integration only creates the Input Framework files to be loaded on sensors. Additional Zeek scripts are required to be loaded on the sensors to use this data. If you enable these integrations, Corelight-update will upload the input files to the sensor. But if the desired script isn’t available on the sensor, the input data won’t be used.

See Zeek package management for information about using Corelight-update to manage Zeek package bundles.

See Zeek-Endpoint-Enrichment for an example of a Zeek package that can use this data.
