Email Activity
Email events report activities of emails.

---|---|---|---|
Action | action |
String |
The normalized caption of action_id .
|

|
End Time | end_time |
Timestamp | The end time of a time period, or the time of the most recent event included in the aggregate event. |
Enrichments | enrichments |
Enrichment[] |
The additional information from an external data source, which is associated with the event or a finding.

OSINT | osint |
OSINT[] | The OSINT (Open Source Intelligence) object contains details related to an indicator such as the indicator itself, related indicators, geolocation, registrar information, subdomains, analyst commentary, and other contextual information. This information can be used to further enrich a detection or finding by providing decisioning support to other analysts and engineers. |
Raw Data | raw_data |
JSON | The event data as received from the event source. |
Record ID | record_id |
String | Unique idenifier for the event |
Severity | severity |
String | The event/finding severity, normalized to the caption of the severity_id value. In the case of 'Other', it is defined by the source. |
Severity ID | severity_id |
Integer |
The normalized identifier of the event/finding severity. The normalized severity is a measurement the effort and expense required to manage and resolve an event or incident. Smaller numerical values represent lower impact events, and larger numerical values represent higher impact events.
