Integration Queries Overview

Integrations include queries that allow the Validation Platform to identify the events coming from security controls. Many of our integrations make the query configurable. This requires the owner of the control and the owner of the Validation Platform to communicate which modifications and tuning are appropriate given the tests being run and the controls being validated.

As an example, Splunk's query should only include indexes that store logs relevant to the Actions being run, which means you include indexes for firewalls but not web servers.

By default, a Job will query an integration for 15 minutes with a frequency of once every 30 seconds. You can configure both of these times in the Integrations' Advanced Settings section.

As the criteria for the queries age out of that window, they are removed from the query. When the query ages out, the security control no longer queries and the integration service moves into a sleep state waiting for more Actions to be run.

Some integrations have queries that you define based on your integration's settings. The most common query type is an overall query, but there might also be queries related to specific Action types or specific for the integration. The following tables show which queries are available for each integration, grouped by integration type.

When setting up Actors that will be used to run Host CLI Actions, always assign its Alternate Hostname. Integrations that support Host CLI-specific queries use the information in this field, as well as the simple hostname, when the %HOST_CLI_ACTOR_HOSTNAMES% variable is used.
