New Features

New FeaturesThis section provides a summary of new features included in the SNYPR 6.3.1 release:

Analytics SandboxSNYPR 6.3.1 provides an isolated analytics sandbox that allows organizations to build, test, and validate use cases before publishing it to production. This allows SOC team to work on high priority events rather than investigating false positive alerts.

See Analytics Sandbox in the What's New Guide for details.

Duplicate PolicySNYPR6.3.1 provides an option to create a new policy by copying an existing policy and editing the details as required. This allows the content team to save time by utilizing an existing policy to create a similar policy.

See Duplicate Policy in the What's New Guide.

Enhanced Auditing FrameworkSNYPR 6.3.1 enhances the existing auditing framework by maintaining a historical record of users actions to provide proof of compliance and system integrity. The audit trail meets the

stringent controls required by auditors for corporate governance and compliance with regulations such as General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR).

After you upgrade to SNYPR 6.3.1, you have to update the database query that is used for ingesting audit logs in SNYPR, and all subsequent configurations related to policies, data insights dashboard, and reports to support the enhanced auditing framework.

See Auditing Framework in the What's New Guide for details.


New Features

Event Rarity PolicySNYPR 6.3.1 introduces a new Event Rarity analytic to reduce false positives generated when a rare behavior has occurred for the first time and the rare behavior is the new behavior

See Event Rarity Behavior Based Policy in the What's New Guide for details.

Incident Management EnhancementsSNYPR 6.3.1 includes new features and enhancement in Incident Management to provide better visibility, collaboration, and case management for security analysts.

See Incident Management Enhancements in the What's New Guide for details.

MITRE ATT&CK Aligned Threat Content SNYPR 6.3.1 introduces the content, use cases, and threat models that are created based on MITRE ATT&CK framework. SNYPR

inherits these tactics and techniques to provide behavioral models and threat chains to prioritize the risks.

See MITRE ATT&CK in the What's New Guide for details.

Multi-Tenancy for Service ProvidersSNYPR 6.3.1 supports Multi-Tenant architecture that provides usability and cost effectiveness by implementing centralized monitoring, tracking, and threat hunting for multiple customers using a single SNYPR application.

See Multi-Tenancy for Service Providers in the What's New Guide for details.


New Features

Notification Enhancements SNYPR 6.3.1 includes new filters for analysts to filter notifications by module, type, and time period. This allows security analysts to save time by quickly locating specific notification.

See Notification Enhancements in the What's New Guide for details.

Securonix SOARSNYPR 6.3.1 provides Securonix SOAR solution to automate process workflows and playbooks. This eliminates the repetitive manual tasks of security analysts.

See Securonix SOAR in the What's New Guide for details.

Spotter Queries/Reports EnhancementsSNYPR 6.3.1 includes multiple ways for analysts to share queries, reports, and dashboards. Analysts and threat hunters can use these features to:

l Import/export saved queries and dashboards.

l Save Spotter query as a widget on Data Insights dashboard.

See Spotter and Reports in the What's New Guide for details.


New Features

Spotter's Threat Hunting Features SNYPR 6.3.1 provides new features to make threat hunting more robust. These features enable security analysts and threat hunters to:

l Locate hot spots for threat hunting by seeing the visual representation of origin and destination in a map.

l Quickly highlight multiple points of interest at one time by viewing data with the heat map. This increases analysts efficiency in locating hot spots.

l Perform mathematical calculations using Eval operator. The threat hunters can apply these ratios to identify suspicious activities within a system.

See Spotter in the What's New Guide for details.

Threat Model Enhancements SNYPR 6.3.1 includes the following new features for threat models:

l Watchlisting in Threat Models: Provides the ability to assign watchlist to a threat model. This reduces the violations generated in SCC from the zero risk policy used only for creating watchlist for the threat model.

l Advanced Threat Detection: Includes the ability to detect attacks when violation entities differ across datasources in the threat model.

See Threat Model Enhancements in the What's New Guide for details.


New Features

Threshold Checks for Behavior Based Policies SNYPR 6.3.1 introduces two threshold checks for behavior based policies to set manual baseline when the calculated baseline has not been formed and reduce false positives by setting a minimum value for an outlier.

See Threshold for Behavior-Based Use Cases in the What's New Guide for details.

Whitelisting Attribute ValuesSNYPR 6.3.1 supports whitelisting of attributes. Security analysts can whitelist any attribute during the triage process. This ensures the triage process is efficient by taking feedback from an analyst and making it available to all analysts. Additionally, it provides less number of false positives so that analysts can focus on high threat entities.

See Whitelisting Attribute Values in the What's New Guide for details.
