Alerts and Incidents
Reference guide for alerts and incidents.
Incidents
Incidents are a set of alerts that are related to each other. You can use them to streamline alerts analysis. The user interface (UI) lets you group alerts into incidents. You can toggle the view between Alerts or Incidents.
Learned behavior (virtual image)
Virtual image represents a set of information by which Guardian represents the monitored network. This includes for example node properties, links, protocols, function codes, variables, variable values. Such information is collected via learning, smart polling, or external contents, such as Asset Intelligence. When an incident of this category is raised, if the related event is not considered a malicious attack or an anomaly, it can be learned.

    - Built-in checks
      Built-in checks are based on specific signatures or hard-coded logics with reference to: known ICS threats (by signatures provided by Threat Intelligence), known malicious operations, system weaknesses, or protocol-compliant operations that can impact the network/ICS functionality. They might also leverage the Learning process to be more accurate.
    - Protocol validations
      An undesired protocol behavior has been detected. This can refer to a wrong single message, to a correct single message not supposed to be transmitted or transmitted at the wrong time (state machines violation) or to a malicious message sequence. Protocol specific error messages indicating misconfigurations also trigger alerts that fall into this category.

INCIDENT:INTERNET-NAVIGATION

Internet Navigation

Type ID

Cause

A node has started surfing the Web.

Solution

Investigate the network and firewall configuration, and the reason why the endpoint shows this behavior, to validate this is a legitimate action.
