Threat Protection and Activity Monitoring Search Terms

The following Omnibar facets can be used on either the Threat Protection or Activity Monitoring pages.

Search Term Description Available Options
Threat Protection
Service Name

The CSP where the anomaly occurred. You can use this Omnibar facet to learn more about the activities occurring in a specific service in order to better design DLP policies for this service. 

Only the currently selected service can be used in this facet. However, Skyhigh CASB for O365 customers can use this facet to separate SharePoint, AzureAD or OneDrive results.
Severity The severity of the anomaly, as determined by how much the anomaly exceeds its threshold. You can use this Omnibar facet to manage your investigation workflow; filtering based on severity level allows your investigators to focus on the highest priority anomalies or threats first.
  • High
  • Medium
  • Low
Threat Category The organizational categories used to sort detected threats. You can use this Omnibar facet to investigate all threats that are sorted into one of the three categories. Filtering by category can help with threat resolution; if you deal with one category at a time the list may be easier to manage. 
Threat ID The unique identification number of the threat.  
Threat Type The type of threat depends on the threat category.  
Threat Status The status of the threat.
  • Opened. A threat is marked opened when it is resolved and found again as a threat to Skyhigh CASB.
  • Resolve 
  • False Positive
User Name The name of the user who triggered the threat. Knowing which user is connected to the anomaly will assist your investigation in order to find out the circumstances of the anomalous behavior directly.  
Activity Monitoring
Action Name The name of the detected activity. You can use this Omnibar facet to filter on specific activities that you wish to investigate. You may need to learn more about how many users are engaging in a specific activity or investigate threats that are calculated based on your selected activity. Select one or more available activities.
Anomaly Category

The organizational categories used to sort detected anomalies. You can use this Omnibar facet to investigate all anomalies that are sorted into one of the three categories. Filtering by category can help with anomaly resolution; if you deal with one category at a time the list may be more easy to manage. 

Anomaly Duration The length of time that the anomaly took place. You can use this Omnibar facet to filter your anomaly list based on the longest-running anomalies. Anomalies that have been measured over longer timelines are more likely to indicate valid threats.
  • Hourly
  • Daily
  • Weekly
  • Monthly
Anomaly Name

The name of the specific anomaly. You can use this Omnibar facet to filter on a particular anomaly in order to investigate security events; if you have an account breach you can check into any unusual file transfers that occurred during the breach.

Only anomalies that have been detected for the active CSP will be available for selection.

At this time, users can only filter results by name for Superhuman, Brute Force Login, and Large Report Download anomalies. If you wish to filter based on anomalies in the Data Anomalies category, you should use the Anomaly Category filter instead. 

Anomaly Threshold This Omnibar facet is reserved for internal functionality. N/A
Category The category of the detected activity. You can use this Omnibar facet to filter on specific activity types. Filtering by category can help with activity monitoring; if you deal with one category at a time the list may be more easy to manage. 

<This appears to be the same list as activity name. What's the difference?>

Valli- e.g download category refers to several download activity names like - Download File, DOwnload Folder, so here you are searching at a category level . 

Client Browser The web browser used to create the activity or anomaly. You can use this Omnibar facet to gain additional insight into how your users are interacting with your cloud services and learn about potential anomaly patterns that may influence your device management rules. For example, if the majority of your access anomalies are occurring through an insecure browser, you may wish to block users from connecting to the cloud service using that browser. Select one or more detected browsers.
Client OS The computer operating system used to create the activity or anomaly. You can use this Omnibar facet to gain additional insight into how your users are interacting with your cloud services and learn about potential anomaly patterns that may influence your device management rules. For example, if the majority of your access anomalies are occurring through an insecure OS, you may wish to block users from connecting to the cloud service using that OS. Select one or more detected operating systems.
Collaboration Group The domain of the user's email address. For example, if you detect activity  from users with email address ending in samplecompany.com, competetorcompany.com and freeemail.com, there will be three detected collaboration groups. You can use this Omnibar facet on the Collaboration View to filter collaborations to specific domains. Select one or more of the detected collaboration groups for the CSP.
Country The country where the activity or anomaly occurred. You can use this Omnibar facet to understand anomaly and threat patterns occurring in different countries. If excessive anomalies occur in a specific country you can adjust your access and DLP policies surrounding access in that country. Select one or more detected countries. <Is there an abbreviation to country list I can use?>
Device The device used to trigger the activity or anomaly. You can use this Omnibar facet to gain additional insight into how your users are interacting with your cloud services and learn about potential anomaly patterns that may influence your device management rules. For example, if the majority of your access anomalies are occurring through an insecure device, you may wish to block users from connecting to the cloud service using that device.

Select one or more of the detected devices.

Logical Operators Use these operators to create compound Omnibar searches. You can use this Omnibar facet link multiple facets together in a single search string. For example, you can search for all anomalies in the Data Anomalies group made to Box from China.

Notes This Omnibar facet is reserved for future functionality. N/A
Profile The profile of the user who triggered the activity or anomaly.

For example, if you've established the profile of "Sales Team" you can filter your results based on that profile.

Select one or more detected profiles.

Role The role of the user who triggered the activity or anomaly. Role information is provided through your Salesforce or Active Directory integration. You can use this Omnibar facet to discover more about the activities of specific types of users. For example, if you've established the role of "Accounting" you can filter your results based on that role.

Select one or more detected role.
