By default, a detection event sent by Kaspersky CyberTrace contains the IP address of the device that sent the original event and a field for the detected indicator. However, FortiSIEM does not contain fields for storing this IP address and indicator. This section describes how to add a field for storing values that you need in FortiSIEM.

To add a field for storing an IP address and detected indicator in FortiSIEM:

  1. Open the FortiSIEM web console.
  2. Select Admin > Device Support > Event Attribute.
  3. Click New.

    The Add Event Attribute Type Definition window opens.

  4. Specify the following information:
    • In the Name field, specify dvcIpAddr.
    • In the Display Name field, specify Device IP Address.
    • In the Value Type field, select IP.
    • Fill in the rest of the fields as you wish.

    Add Event Attribute Type Definition window in FortiSIEM.
