To counter the advances in exploits and malware distribution
methods, correlation objects extend the signature-based malware
detection capabilities on the firewall. They provide the intelligence
for identifying suspicious behavior patterns across different sets
of logs and they gather the evidence required to investigate and
promptly respond to an event.
A correlation object is a definition file that specifies patterns
for matching, the data sources to use for performing the lookups,
and the time period within which to look for these patterns. A pattern
is a boolean structure of conditions that query the data sources,
and each pattern is assigned a severity and a threshold, which is
number of time the pattern match occurs within a defined time limit.
When a pattern match occurs, a correlation event is logged.
The data sources used for performing lookups can include the
following logs: application statistics, traffic, traffic summary,
threat summary, threat, data filtering, and URL filtering. For example,
the definition for a correlation object can include a set of patterns
that query the logs for evidence of infected hosts, evidence of
malware patterns, or for lateral movement of malware in the traffic, url
filtering, and threat logs.
Correlation objects are defined by Palo Alto Networks® and are
packaged with content updates. You must have a valid threat prevention
license to get content updates.
By default, all correlation objects are enabled. To disable an
object, select the object and Disable it.
Correlation Object Fields | Description |
---|---|
Name and Title | The label indicates the type of activity
that the correlation object detects. |
ID | A unique number identifies the correlation
object. This number is in the 6000 series. |
Category | A summary of the kind of threat or harm
posed to the network, user, or host. |
State | The state indicates whether the correlation
object is enabled (active) or disabled (inactive). |
Description | The description specifies the match conditions
for which the firewall or Panorama will analyze logs. It describes
the escalation pattern or progression path that will be used to
identify malicious activity or suspicious host behavior. |
