About ForeScout-Splunk Integration
Splunk Enterprise data analytics help organizations leverage the data that their infrastructure and security tools provide, to understand their security posture, pinpoint and investigate risks, and create alerts and reports.
However, IT staff must then respond to any identified threats, violations and attacks. Any delay in response can result in significant security risks.
Combining ForeScout dynamic endpoint visibility, access and security capabilities with Splunk Enterprise’s data mining capabilities, security managers can achieve a broader understanding of their security posture, visualize key control metrics, and respond more quickly to mitigate a range of security issues.
Integration is fully bi-directional – CounterACT sends property, policy, and event information to Splunk, and Splunk sends alerts and action requests to CounterACT.
The result is enhanced threat insight, automated control, and greater operational efficiency.
Support for Splunk Adaptive Response
Splunk’s Adaptive Response Framework describes a complete action flow, which includes requesting an action be applied to an endpoint, and tracking the status of the action taken.
This integration supports the Splunk Adaptive Response workflow as follows:
- The ForeScout App for Splunk maintains a list of available actions from CounterACT. Splunk can instruct CounterACT to respond to potential threats by applying any of these actions to endpoints that match search/trend criteria.
- To complete the action flow, CounterACT reports the status of actions applied to endpoints.
