Splunk Zero Trust Self-Guided Tour  

Splunk Zero Trust Self-Guided Tour

Splunk is dedicated to creating a safer and more resilient digital world by empowering agencies to embrace Zero Trust principles and enhance their security posture. Splunk aligns with the “cross-cutting capabilities” outlined in CISA’s Zero Trust Maturity Model, including visibility and analytics, automation and orchestration and governance. Splunk integrates seamlessly with existing technologies to provide a comprehensive view of the environment, enabling actionable insights and informed decision-making.

Creating a resilient agency with Splunk involves leveraging data sets traditionally siloed in security or IT operations and viewing them holistically. By marrying security information with ITOps insights, Splunk facilitates quick and comprehensive incident response, driving effective risk management and security operations. Splunk supports diverse environments, offering MultiCloud monitoring and robust security capabilities, including FedRAMP-compliant Splunk Cloud SaaS deployments that cater to sensitive information requirements and on-premises solutions for air-gapped or classified areas, meeting the unique needs of civilian agencies.

Splunk Enterprise Security

Enterprise Security is a premium application you can add to your core Splunk license. Enterprise Security provides a holistic view for all your security information. With ES you’re able to turn your data into doing with capabilities like triage findings, starting investigations, response plans, automating investigation, risk-based alerting, and threat intel management. The data sources you can bring into ES are, but not limited to, authentication logs, networking data, security event logs, endpoint logs, active directory data, or zero trust toolsets.

Benefits:

  • Optimize MTTD and MTTR (Detection and Response): With real time data, you can get a hold of and respond to incidents ASAP.
  • Risk-based Alerting: set up alerts with meaningful data for a proactive approach.
  • Monitor all potential threats that may arise in your environment with investigations.

Splunk User and Entity Behavior Analytics (UEBA)

User behavior analytics allows users to track activity with users, endpoints, and applications to find threats and unusual behaviors. Threats can be viewed through a kill chain to have added context and through a single pane of glass to pinpoint potential patterns. User and Entity Behavior Analytics allows you to customize anomaly models based off policies, user roles, functions, or assets. The UEBA app can easily correlate with Splunk Enterprise Security as well providing added security to a zero-trust environment.

Benefits:

  • Minimize Security Risks: UEBA allows you to find anomalies faster to get a hold of threats before any potential issues arise, like insider threats or malware.
  • Threat Detection Automation: UEBA uses machine learning to automate threat detection in cases where there is a lack of expert analysts in the cyber/zero-trust vertical.
  • Minimize False positives: False positives can sometimes happen, which takes time away from the critical alerts that might come through. UEBA filters the false alarms and enhances the efficiency of analysts or security teams, focusing on what's important.

Benefits:

  • Automate Manual Tasks: Splunk SOAR has the ability to automate alert triage and repetitive security tasks so you can work efficiently and focus on mission critical objectives.
  • Faster Threat Response: Investigate and respond to security incidents in seconds instead of hours. Lower your mean time to respond (MTTR) by automating security tasks and workflows across all of your security tools.
  • Ease of End-to-end Security Operations: SOAR supports a broad range of security functions including event and case management, integrated threat intelligence, and collaboration tools and reporting.

Splunk IT Service Intelligence (ITSI)

Splunk IT Service Intelligence, or ITSI, provides end to end intelligent zero trust service monitoring where a user can predict, detect, and resolve incidents all from one centralized place. Using advanced analytics like anomaly detection and adaptive thresholding to predict and prevent issues before they impact performance. Users are also able to accelerate MTTR with automated event correlation, incident prioritization, and integrations with IT service management tools. ITSI also leverages artificial intelligence for IT Operations (AIOps), allowing ITSI to organize and correlate events cross-functionally. In addition, Splunk's risk-based alerting capabilities provide for cumulative risk scoring which enriches events with additional context from standardized cybersecurity frameworks such as MITRE ATT&CK Framework.

Benefits:

  • Predictive Alerting: Detect future service degradations using machine learning and historical data.
  • Automated Event Aggregation: Collect and enrich events from multiple sources into a single framework.
  • Service Deep Dives: Analyze multiple service metrics in swim lanes and drill down into raw data at full fidelity to quickly identify root cause.

Splunk's Benefits Snapshot:

 

  • Comprehensive Security Insights: Gain a holistic view across cloud, on-premises and hybrid environments with Splunk, enabling proactive detection and remediation of security risks before they escalate.

  • Regulatory Compliance: Splunk Cloud Platform adheres to rigorous security standards, including FedRAMP and StateRAMP, providing proactive risk management and ensuring compliance with evolving regulations.

  • Zero Trust Enablement: Enhance security resilience by implementing robust Zero Trust architectures.
