Secure Cloud Analytics is a software as a service (SaaS) solution that monitors your on-premises and cloud-based network deployments. By gathering information about your network traffic, it creates observations about the traffic, which are facts about behavior on the network, and automatically identifies roles for network entities based on their traffic patterns. Observations on their own do not carry meaning beyond the fact of what they represent. Based on the combination of observations, roles, and other threat intelligence, Secure Cloud Analytics generates alerts, which are actionable items that represent possible malicious behavior as identified by the system.

Secure Cloud Analytics also identifies observations of interesting behavior (highlighted observations), which you can review from its portal UI. Though these observations do not signify malicious behavior on their own, they may represent otherwise notable traffic on your network.

The following describes the Secure Cloud Analytics tiles that you can display in Cisco XDR, which represent Secure Cloud Analytics findings.

Important Information about Tiles

Tiles showing metrics for events show events that have been sent from Secure Firewall Threat Defense devices to Security Services Exchange within the past 7 days.

To ensure that you see the correct set of events, you must correctly configure auto-promotion options in Security Services Exchange. For details, see the online help in Security Services Exchange. To access Security Services Exchange, you can click a summary value in the Event Summary tile.

Some tiles are applicable only to systems managed by Secure Firewall Management Center, not to deployments managed by Secure Firewall Device Manager.

Some links from these tiles take you to your Secure Firewall Management Center appliance. As long as your browser can connect to your internal network, you can access your Secure Firewall Management Center from within Cisco XDR. (Cisco XDR does not need to connect to your corporate network.)

To cross-launch Secure Firewall Management Center from the tiles in Cisco XDR, the Secure Firewall Management Center's name must be a Fully Qualified Domain Name (FQDM). To change the name of your Secure Firewall Management Center, go to System > Configuration > Information in the Secure Firewall Management Center web interface and modify the Name field.

Tile Name Description

Event Summary

This tile summarizes Secure Firewall Threat Defense events in Security Services Exchange within the timeframe selected, up to 7 days. You can view event details in Security Services Exchange by clicking metrics in this tile. Security Services Exchange will open in a separate browser window.

Talos IP Reputation

This tile summarizes the Talos reputation scores of the public IP addresses associated with intrusion and malware events sent from Secure Firewall Threat Defense to Security Services Exchange within the timeframe selected (up to 7 days.)

This value is based on the same threat data as the Talos Disposition value in the Incident Promotion Reason tile, but the counts may differ because of the way they are calculated. For example, Talos IP Reputation counts source and destination IP addresses separately, while the Talos Disposition value increments only once per incident, even if both source and destination IP addresses have poor reputation.

The Talos IP Reputation threat metric used to promote events from Security Services Exchange to incidents is not used in Secure Firewall Threat Defense devices. It is similar to, but different from, the Security Intelligence data for networks.

You can view event details in Security Services Exchange by clicking a metric in this tile. Security Services Exchange will open in a separate browser window.

The count of events shown in Security Services Exchange may differ from the count of events shown in the tile. Duplicate events are automatically removed from Security Services Exchange, and your configurations in Security Services Exchange may automatically filter out events. The tile shows the event count before such actions are taken in Security Services Exchange.

Tetration Software Agents Summary

Metrics describing the connected software agents.

Secure Workload receives telemetry from agents distributed across your environment. Tracking the health and connectivity status of agents is key to ensuring continued visibility and effective policy enforcement. This tile shows the connected agent count, split into these subtypes:

  • Inactive Enforcement Agents

  • Enforcement Agents

  • Visibility Agents

  • ISE Collectors

  • ISE Endpoints

  • AnyConnect Collectors

  • AnyConnect Endpoints

  • AWS Agents

  • F5 Enforcer

  • Citrix Enforcer

Inactive Enforcement Agents is a critical metric to track, as these may need remediation to return to healthy operation.

Tetration Vulnerable Workloads and Inventory

Metrics describing workloads with known vulnerabilities and the total inventory count.

Secure Workload tracks all endpoints that have been discovered whether they are data center workloads, endpoints accessing applications, or remote resources on the internet. This database is called the 'inventory' and it is important to keep an eye on the inventory level to monitor the health of a Secure Workload deployment and the effectiveness of policy enforcement. The inventory tracks potential software vulnerabilities on monitored workloads by analyzing packages that are installed on workloads via a software agent.

This tile provides:

  • Total count of all inventory items

  • Workloads with major vulnerabilities (CVSS v2 and v3)

  • Workloads with critical vulnerabilities (CVSS v2 and v3)

Tetration Policy Metrics

Metrics describing the configured segmentation policies.

Secure Workload provides a powerful policy discovery, analysis, and enforcement engine. As you grow your Secure Workload deployment, you will create scopes, filters and applications where policies will be discovered. As data center policy evolves, the number of these objects will grow, and will reflect the degree of segmentation that is in place.

This tile provides:

  • Total count of scopes

  • Total count of filters

  • Total count of applications
