Manage evidence
Overview
During your investigation, you can save relevant fragments from logs and IP addresses as evidence for later use in the Evidence lists section. With the evidence lists, you can build filters for your query. For details, see Filter by evidence.
Add evidence
You can add
-
A field value or a selected part of the value from the results table to the built-in IoC evidence list or to a custom evidence list created by you.
-
IP addresses (IPv4 and IPv6, also in CIDR notation) to the built-in IP evidence lists (Suspicious or Safe) or to custom IP evidence lists created by you.
There are two ways to add evidence, from the Evidence lists section and from the query results table.
There is no limitation on the number of items (strings or IPs) you can add to a list in your evidence list.
