Summary
Cisco Secure Application Alerts is designed to enhance threat detection for web applications by leveraging real-time alerts from Cisco SecureApp. This analytic identifies exploit attempts that target vulnerabilities such as SQL injection, API abuses, deserialization attacks, and remote code execution. The detection focuses on behaviors associated with known vulnerabilities to help Security Operations Centers (SOC) respond swiftly to incidents. The rule categorizes risks into severity levels based on a calculated risk score, allowing teams to prioritize remediation effectively. It generates contextual alerts that include details about the attack source, techniques, and affected applications, thus providing SOC analysts with actionable insights to determine the success of an attack. Additionally, the implementation requires ingestion of specific alert data from AppDynamics via HTTP Event Collector (HEC) into Splunk, making it crucial for maintaining security controls against application layer threats.
