Looker dashboard updates

The following changes have been made to the Looker dashboards in Google SecOps:

  • All dashboards have been moved to the ingestion_metrics_connector explore.

  • The ingestion_stats, ingestion_metric_with_ingestion_stats and ingestion_metrics explores are no longer supported.

  • The total_entry_number and total_size_bytes fields are defined in the new explore and used to query the log count and log volume for the Google SecOps Ingestion API. For more information, see the Ingestion metrics field reference for dashboards.

  • The default dashboards for Context aware detections risk and Cloud detection and response overview have been updated to use a different field for the risk score. It was rule_detections.outcomes['risk_score'] and is now rule_detections.risk_score. This change aligns the risk score in the Google SecOps dashboards to the risk score used in the Google SecOps user interface.

  • The severity field in the Rules and detections default Dashboard has been updated so that it would show the severity for both Curated Detections and custom rules.

The feed management feature is now enhanced to include the following:

  • Feed names: You can assign custom names to new and existing data feeds.
  • Troubleshooting information: You can diagnose error feeds by accessing detailed information about the cause of an issue and recommended actions.
  • Last succeeded time: Stay informed about the status of a feed, with a timestamp identifying when data was last successfully fetched by each feed.

You can now set up feeds to push logs using an HTTPS endpoint by using either the feed management user interface or the feed management API. You can use the following feed management source types to set up ingestion using an HTTPS endpoint:

  • Amazon Data Firehose
  • Google Cloud Pub/Sub
  • Webhooks

You can also generate a secret key and API key to authenticate feeds that use Amazon Data Firehose and webhooks as the feed source type.

Chronicle Security Operations (Chronicle SecOps) has been rebranded to Google Security Operations (Google SecOps). Both the logo and the platform name have been rebranded as part of this change. This rebranding reflects our commitment to bringing you the best of Google security operations features. There is no change to functionality in the platform.

April 22, 2024

The ingestion_stats table in BigQuery is deprecated and will no longer be updated after May 15, 2024. We recommend that you use the Chronicle ingestion_metrics table in BigQuery, which provides more accurate ingestion metrics.

The ingestion alerting system using Chronicle has been deprecated. This system will no longer be updated, and no alerts will be sent from this system after September 01, 2024. We recommend that you use the Cloud Monitoring integration which provides more flexibility in alert logic, alert workflow, and integration with third-party ticketing systems.

April 15, 2024

The following labels fields for UDM nouns are deprecated and these fields will not appear in the search results after November 29, 2024: about.labels, intermediary.labels, observer.labels, principal.labels, src.labels, security_result.about.labels, and target.labels. For existing parsers, in addition to these UDM fields, the logs fields are also mapped to key and value additional.fields UDM fields. For new parsers, the key and value settings in additional.fields UDM fields are used instead of the deprecated labels UDM fields. We recommend that you update the existing rules to use the key and value settings in the additional.fields UDM fields instead of the deprecated labels UDM fields.

April 03, 2024

On or after May 1, 2024, in an effort to improve enrichment quality, the enrichment process using telemetry events and entities will prioritize values set by parsers over values from aliases in unenriched events. If a parser does not set the value, the enrichment process will set the enriched value to using aliases.

Curated Detections rule packs covering AWS threats are generally available to Chronicle Enterprise and Enterprise Plus customers.

Chronicle Applied Threat Intelligence helps you identify and respond to threats. When enabled, it ingests IOCs curated by Mandiant Threat Intelligence with an IC-Score greater than 80 and generates an error when a match is found. The following are some of the features of Applied Threat Intelligence.

  • Event-level enrichment: All telemetry in Chronicle is enriched with Google Threat Intelligence which is a combination of Mandiant and Virus Total, including all threat intelligence associations like campaigns and actors.

  • Sophisticated indicator matching: Curated out-of-the-box detections that deliver sophisticated indicator matching using augmented prioritization logic, noise reduction based on customer environment context, and other correlation techniques to maximize signal to noise.

  • Active breach alerting: Uses Mandiant's incident response intelligence to alert on potential active breaches delivering on our no patient 1 vision.

  • Curated behavioral detections for emerging threats: To protect against newly emerging risks and tactics, techniques, and procedures (TTPs), Applied Threat Intelligence uses real-time insights.

  • DIY detection engineering and response automation: Access to Fusion intelligence (formerly known as Mandiant Fusion) for the following.

    • Customer authoring of rules
    • Customer development of response playbooks
  • Curated views for Investigation and triage Insights: Applied Threat Intelligence provides curated views that show valuable associations between an indicator and threat actor, threat campaign, or malware, statistics about a threat observed in customer environments. These views are invaluable for all security operations workflows.

For more information about Applied Threat Intelligence, see Applied Threat Intelligence overview.

This note incorrectly states that an error is generated when an IOC match is found. See the entry for May 8, 2024 for the updated statement.

March 22, 2024

Chronicle now supports direct ingestion and parsing of reCAPTCHA Enterprise logs from Google Cloud.

There is no longer a limit on the number of feeds you can create for the same log type in Feed Management.

Chronicle has added a new rule set to Cloud Threat Detections , called Serverless Threats, that detects activity associated with potential compromise or abuse of server-less resources in Google Cloud, such as Cloud Run and Cloud Functions.

March 20, 2024

Chronicle has expanded Cloud Threat Detections to create a detection when findings from Security Command Center Event Threat Detections, Cloud Armor, Sensitive Actions Service, and Custom modules for Event Threat Detection are identified. These detections are available through the following rule sets: CDIR SCC Cloud IDS, CDIR SCC Cloud Armor, CDIR SCC Impact, CDIR SCC Enhanced Persistence, CDIR SCC Enhanced Defense Evasion, and CDIR SCC Custom Module.

Case filter and URL now in a reciprocal relationship

In the Cases page, the filter and the URL now directly affect each other. Changing the filter changes the URL, and conversely, changing the URL changes the filter. You can take advantage of this feature by setting a filter for cases and putting the newly created URL in an external dashboard. Clicking on this link would then take you directly to the filtered case queue.

March 14, 2024

Forwarder troubleshooting guide is now available to help you diagnose and resolve common issues that may arise while using the Chronicle Linux forwarder.

Risk Analytics

Google has introduced Risk Analytics to Chronicle. Risk Analytics looks for patterns of risk across your enterprise, assigning risk scores to all entities and activities. These scores are surfaced in the Risk Analytics dashboard which lets you better understand risk in your environment by visualizing entity risk trends. The dashboard helps you to identify unusual behavior and the potential risk that entities pose to your enterprise. You can specify watchlists of entities you suspect of having greater risk. The watchlists let you more easily monitor risk within your environment.

Risk Analytics also provides both predefined curated detections and YARA-L metric functions for authoring custom rules.

Risk Analytics is available with Enterprise and Enterprise Plus licenses.

Chronicle requires a minimum Transport Layer Security (TLS) version of 1.2 to maintain security compliance. Ingestion routing connections that use lower TLS versions are automatically blocked. Upgrade any custom ingestion mechanisms to adhere to TLS 1.2 or higher.

When the data ingestion rate for a tenant reaches a certain threshold, Chronicle controls the rate of ingestion for new data feeds to prevent a source with a high ingestion rate from affecting the ingestion rate of another data source. The ingestion volume and tenant's usage history determine the threshold. If the rate of ingestion does not deviate greatly then there is no effect on the ingestion rate.

UDM Search for entity investigation

UDM Search now includes a feature that lets you investigate entities (for example, an IP address, user, or asset) in addition to the events and alerts that match the search query terms. UDM Search query conditions can include both UDM fields (for example, principal.hostname="alice") and grouped fields (for example, hostname="alice"). When a search query includes a condition that identifies a specific entity, the search results include details about that entity in addition to UDM events that match the entire search query.

January 04, 2024

Additional support for trimming large alerts

In order to prevent performance issues, when an alert contains over 500 entities, the alert is ingested with the key entities retained and the additional entities are removed.

This trimming support works in parallel with the current trimming mechanism as defined in Handle large alerts .

New placeholders added

A new category of placeholders have been added to the SOAR side of the platform which focus on the current state of the session, such as logged-in user and the platform. These can be used in a variety of scenarios. For example, you can use them in an HTML widget to create customized information specifically for logged-in users as opposed to the users assigned to the case.

A new section called General has been added to the placeholders. It contains the following placeholders

  • HostUrl
  • CurrentUserEmail
  • CurrentUserID
  • CurrentUserFullName
  • CurrentUserRole

Note that the Current User placeholders cannot be used in playbooks or jobs.

Duet AI in Security Operations

The following Duet AI features are now available to Chronicle Security Operations customers:

  • You can now use Duet AI to search your event data using natural language. Duet AI can translate natural language into Chronicle's unified data model, letting you search your event data without having to know YARA-L to craft custom queries.

  • You can now use the AI Investigation widget to look at the whole case (alerts, events, and entities). The AI Investigation widget also provides an AI-generated case summary of how much attention the case might require, summarizes the alerts data to better understand the threat, and recommends next steps to be taken for effective remediation. The AI Investigation widget is available in the United States only.

Welcome to Chronicle Security Operations (SecOps), a Google Cloud service built as a specialized layer on top of Google's core infrastructure, designed for enterprises to privately retain, analyze, and search petabytes of security and network telemetry.

The SecOps platform provides instant context about suspicious and malicious activity. It can be used to detect threats, investigate the scope and cause of those threats, and provide remediation using pre-built integrations with enterprise workflow, response, and orchestration platforms.

The SecOps platform fuses key capabilities of Security Information and Event Management (SIEM), Security Orchestration, Automation, and Response (SOAR) and Threat Intelligence from Google Cloud, VirusTotal, and Mandiant.

The Chronicle SecOps platform enables security analysts to analyze and mitigate a security threat throughout its lifecycle by employing the following capabilities:

Collection: Data is ingested into the platform using software forwarders, parsers, connectors, and webhooks.

Detection: This data is aggregated, normalized using the Universal Data Model (UDM), and linked to detections and threat intelligence.

Investigation: Threats are investigated through case management, search, collaboration, and contextual mapping.

Response: Security analysts can respond quickly and provide resolutions using automated playbooks, incident management, and closed-loop feedback.
