Creating and Editing a Model

Scenario

SecMaster can use models to monitor log data in pipelines. If SecMaster detects the data that hits trigger conditions in a mode, SecMaster generates an alert.

This topic describes how to create and edit an alert model.

Creating an Alert Model Using a Template

  1. Log in to the management console.
  2. Click in the upper part of the page and choose Security > SecMaster.
  3. In the navigation pane on the left, choose Workspaces > Management. In the workspace list, click the name of the target workspace.
  4. In the navigation pane on the left, choose Threat Operations > Intelligent Modeling, and select the Model Templates tab.
  5. In the model template list, click Details in the Operation column of the target model template. The template details page is displayed on the right.
  6. On the model template details page, click Create Model in the lower right corner. The page for creating an alert model is displayed.
  7. On the Create Threat Model page, configure basic information about the model by referring to Table 1.

    Table 1 Basic alert model parameters

    Parameter

    Description

    Pipeline Name

    Select the execution pipeline for the alert model based on the pipeline described in Restrictions area in the Description text box.

    Model Name

    Name of the alert model.

    Severity

    Severity of the alert model. You can set the severity to Critical, High, Medium Low, or Informative.

    Alarm Type

    Alarm type displayed after the alert model is triggered.

    Model Type

    The default value is Rule model.

    Description

    Description of the alert model

    Status

    Indicates whether to enable the alert model.

    The status set here can be changed after the entire alert model is set successfully.

  8. After the setting is complete, click Next in the lower right corner of the page. The page for setting the model logic is displayed.
  9. Set the model logic. For details about the parameters, see Table 2.

    Table 2 Configure Model Logic

    Parameter

    Description

    Query Rule

    Set alert query rules. After the setting is complete, click Run and view the running result.

    A query analysis statement consists of a query statement and an analysis statement. The format is Query Statement|Analysis Statement. For details about the syntax of query analysis statements, see Query and Analysis Statements - SQL Syntax.
    NOTE:

    If the reserved field is of the text type, MATCH_QUERY is used for word segmentation queries by default.

    Query Plan

    Set an alert query plan.

    • Running query interval: xx minutes/hour/day.

      If the running query interval is minute, set this parameter to a value ranging from 5 to 59 minutes. If the running query interval is hour, set this parameter to a value ranging from 1 to 23 hours. If the running query interval is day, set this parameter to a value ranging from 1 to 14 days.

    • Time window: xx minutes/hour/day.

      If the time window is minute, the value ranges from 5 minutes to 59 minutes. If the time window is hour, the value ranges from 1 hour to 23 hours. If the time window is day, the value ranges from 1 day to 14 days.

    • Execution Delay: xx minutes. The value ranges from 0 to 5 minutes.

    Advanced Alarm Settings

    • Custom Information: Customize extended alert information.

      Click Add, and set the key and value information.

    • Alarm Details: Enter the alarm name, description, and handling suggestions.

    Trigger Condition

    Sets alert triggering conditions. The value can be greater than, equal to, not equal to, or less than xx.

    If there are multiple trigger conditions, click Add and add them. A maximum of five trigger conditions can be added.

    If there are multiple trigger conditions, SecMaster scans log data to hit each trigger condition from top to bottom and generates all types of alerts for hit trigger conditions.

    Alarm Trigger

    The way to trigger alerts for queried results. The options are as follows:

    • One alert for all query results
    • One alert for each query result

    Debugging

    Sets whether to generate debugging alarms.

    Suppression

    Specifies whether to stop the query after an alert is generated.

    • If Suppression is enabled, the query stops after an alert is generated.
    • If Suppression is disabled, the query is not stopped after an alert is generated.

  10. After the setting is complete, click Next in the lower right corner of the page. The model details preview page is displayed.
  11. After confirming that the preview is correct, click OK in the lower right corner of the page.
