New Features & Enhancements
Granular Filtering for Event Integrations: Optimize SIEM ingestion for events by applying granular filters before they are ingested by external integrations.
Filter events by specific event fields, such as action, severity, rule name, application, site, or user
Only relevant events are ingested to integrations such as Microsoft Sentinel, Splunk, and CrowdStrike
Reduce low-value event ingestion while preserving important security and operational events
