Elasticsearch Overview

Overview

Every internet-facing device is constantly bombarded by scanners, bots, and automated tools — generating thousands of false-positive alerts that overwhelm SOC teams and bury real threats.

The GreyNoise integration for Elastic seamlessly integrates GreyNoise's extensive internet intelligence dataset directly into the Elastic environment. By correlating internal network traffic with GreyNoise's real-time intelligence data, security analysts can quickly distinguish targeted attacks from opportunistic internet background noise. This enables teams to ignore benign scanning activity and focus investigations on genuine threats that require immediate attention.

Key Capabilities

  • Threat Intelligence IOC Collection: Continuously ingest GreyNoise Indicators of Compromise (IOCs), including malicious and suspicious IP intelligence, into Elastic for centralized threat monitoring and correlation.
  • Threat Intelligence Correlation: Continuously correlate internal network activity with GreyNoise intelligence feeds to accelerate investigations and improve detection accuracy.
  • Real-Time IP Enrichment: Automatically enriches IP addresses observed in Elastic Security events with GreyNoise classifications, actor information, ASN details, VPN/Tor detection, and scanner identification.
  • Pre-Built Visual Dashboards: Two ready-to-use dashboards covering Threat Feed IOCs and threat intelligence events detected using GreyNoise data.
