SIEMplyfier Knowledge Graph (Conceptual)

SIEMplyfier Knowledge Graph
Understanding the interconnectedness of your security entities.

A Knowledge Graph for SIEMplyfier would represent your security landscape as a network of interconnected entities. This allows for powerful analysis, such as identifying coverage gaps, understanding the impact of a new threat, or prioritizing use case development.

Note: This page is a conceptual overview. A fully interactive visual Knowledge Graph is a planned future enhancement. The sections below illustrate the types of entities and relationships that would be part of such a graph.

Key Entities & Their Potential Relationships

SIEM Use Cases
Core detection logic and procedures defined in SIEMplyfier.

Potential Relationships:

  • Covers specific MITRE ATT&CK Techniques.
  • Requires certain Data Sources.
  • Addresses particular Compliance Controls.
  • Is relevant for specific Industries.
  • May be triggered by Threat Actor TTPs.
  • Links to SOAR Playbooks.
MITRE ATT&CK® Techniques
Adversary tactics and techniques based on real-world observations.

Potential Relationships:

  • Covered by one or more Use Cases.
  • Utilized by specific Threat Actors.
  • Part of broader MITRE ATT&CK Tactics.
  • Can be mitigated by certain Security Controls (generic).
Threat Actors
Groups or individuals posing a cyber threat.

Potential Relationships:

  • Utilize specific MITRE ATT&CK Techniques.
  • Target particular Industries or Geographies.
  • Associated with known IOCs (Indicators of Compromise).
  • May be countered by specific Use Cases.
Data Sources
Logs and events from various systems (e.g., firewall, EDR, cloud).

Potential Relationships:

  • Required by one or more Use Cases.
  • Can reveal evidence of specific MITRE ATT&CK Techniques.
  • Contain fields relevant for SIEM parsing and normalization.
Compliance Controls
Specific requirements from frameworks like ISO 27001, PCI DSS, etc.

Potential Relationships:

  • Addressed or supported by one or more Use Cases.
  • Part of a broader Compliance Standard.
  • May mandate specific types of monitoring or logging (Data Sources).
SOAR Playbooks
Automated response procedures for security incidents.

Potential Relationships:

  • Triggered by specific Use Cases or alerts.
  • Orchestrates actions across multiple Security Tools.
  • Aims to contain/eradicate specific MITRE ATT&CK Techniques.

Future Vision

  • Interactive visualization of the graph.
  • Ability to query the graph (e.g., "Show all use cases related to APT28").
  • Automated discovery and suggestion of new relationships by AI.
  • Impact analysis (e.g., "What's affected if this data source goes offline?").
