CyberArk Privileged Threat Analytics

CyberArk Privileged Threat Analytics (PTA) leverages the analytic capabilities of PTA and assigns a risk score to privileged sessions.

CyberArk Privileged Threat Analytics

This pack includes Cortex XSIAM content.

This pack contains a beta Modeling Rule, which lets you process CyberArk PTA log fields to XDM fields.
Since the Modeling Rule is considered as beta, it might not contain some of the fields that are available from the logs.
We appreciate your feedback on the quality and usability of the Modeling Rule to help us identify issues, fix them, and continually improve.
