Log-Derived Data

Derived data is generated based on information about the parser (for example, Common Event), on post processing information parsed out of the log (for example, Duration), or contextual information linking the log data to an entity or host (for example, Priority). The following fields are Log-Derived data where the value of the field is not part of the original log. 

Display Field

Description

Associated Data Sources

Application Tab

Application

Application derived by IANA protocol and port number or directly assigned in MPE processing settings. 

Protocol Number
Protocol Name

Origin/Impacted Port

Known Application

Application derived from IANA protocol and port number. If a known application cannot be derived, it is displayed as unknown. 

Protocol Name
Protocol Number

Origin/Impacted Port

Duration

Duration is a polyfield for capturing time derived.

Time Start
Time End
Days
Hours
Minutes
Seconds
Milliseconds
Microseconds
Nanoseconds

Classification Tab

Classification

Value is determined based on the MPE Rule’s assigned Common Event.

Classification choice is a secondary effect of choosing the correct common event for a rule. Each common event has a classification and the classification is automatically associated to the log via the common event selection.

Assigned

Common Event

Value is determined based on the MPE Rule’s assigned Common Event. 

Assigned

Priority

Value is determined based on the Risk-Based Priority (RBP) calculation.

Risk-Based Priority

Direction

Indicates the directional flow of data between the Origin Host and the Impacted Host — Inbound, Outbound, Internal, External, or Unknown. 

Origin/Impacted Host

MPE Rule Name

Name of rule that matched, assigned on rule creation.

Assigned

Host Tab

Host (Origin)

Origin host derived from Origin IP Address, Origin Hostname, or both.

IP Address (Origin)
Hostname (Origin)

Host (Impacted)

Impacted host derived from Impacted IP Address, Impacted Hostname, or both.

IP Address (Impacted)
Hostname (Impacted)

Known Host (Origin)

A value determined by mapping parsed origin host identifiers, such as IP address or hostname, to a LogRhythm host record.

IP Address (Origin)
Hostname (Origin)
LogRhythm Host Record

Known Host (Impacted)

A value determined by mapping parsed impacted host identifiers, such as IP address or hostname, to a LogRhythm host record.

IP Address (Impacted)
Hostname (Impacted)
LogRhythm Host Record

Location Tab

Entity (Origin)

A value determined based on the origin host's assigned entity.

IP Address (Origin)
Hostname (Origin)
Entity

Entity (Impacted)

A value determined based on the impacted host's assigned entity.

IP Address (Impacted)
Hostname (Impacted)
Entity

Zone (Origin)

A value determined based on the zone of the origin host – Internal, External, DMZ, or Unknown.

IP Address (Origin)

Zone (Impacted)

A value determined based on the zone of the impacted host – Internal, External, DMZ, or Unknown.

IP Address (Impacted)

Location (Origin)

A value determined by resolving the parsed origin IP address against a Geo-IP database. 

IP Address (Origin)

Location (Impacted)

A value determined by resolving the parsed impacted IP address against a Geo-IP database. 

IP Address (Impacted)

Country (Origin)

The country in which the determined origin location exists. 

IP Address (Origin)

Country (Impacted)

The country in which the determined impacte location exists.

IP Address (Impacted)

Agent

First Log Date

Timestamp when the first identical log message was received.

Agent

Last Log Date

Agent

Network Tab

Network (Origin)

A value determined by mapping the origin IP address to a LogRhythm network record.

IP Address (Origin)
LogRhythm Network Record

Network (Impacted)
