Add asset and identity data to Splunk Enterprise Security

Splunk Enterprise Security uses an asset and identity system to correlate asset and identity information with events to enrich and provide context to your data. This system takes information from external data sources to populate lookups, which Enterprise Security correlates with events at search time.

  1. Collect and extract asset and identity data in Splunk Enterprise Security.
  2. (Optional) Define identity formats on the identity configuration page in Splunk Enterprise Security.
  3. Format the asset or identity list as a lookup in Splunk Enterprise Security.
