Source types for the Splunk Add-on for Crowdstrike

The Splunk Add-on for CrowdStrike FDR collects different logs and events from different sources monitored by the CrowdStrike platform. The add-on assigns different source types based on the source and type of each event or log message.

Based on the event source and event data, the Add-On assigns the sourcetype to one of the following:

Source type Description Event Type CIM data models
crowdstrike:events:external CrowdStrike external security events triggered by actions coming from outside of the CrowdStrike environment, for example, user authentication to the CrowdStrike dashboard. N/A
crowdstrike:events:sensor CrowdStrike events coming from agents/sensors. See below
crowdstrike:events:ztha CrowdStrike zero trust host assessment (ZTA) events. N/A
crowdstrike:inventory:aidmaster CrowdStrike aidmaster inventory updates. N/A
crowdstrike:inventory:managedassets CrowdStrike managed assets inventory updates (for example, host network interfaces). N/A
crowdstrike:inventory:notmanaged CrowdStrike “notmanaged” inventory updates (assets around managed hosts, detected by CrowdStrike agents). N/A
crowdstrike:inventory:appinfo Application information inventory updates (file hashes and locations related to applications running at hosts). N/A
crowdstrike:inventory:userinfo User information inventory updates (User SIDs, names and other user related information about users involved in external API events). N/A

Currently CIM normalization is done for a subset of crowdstrike:events:sensor events.
