Indicator Management - Threat Intel Management Guide - 6.9 - Cortex XSOAR - Cortex

Abstract

Perform actions (create, edit, export, delete) and search for indicators on the Cortex XSOAR Threat Intel page.

After you have customized indicators and started ingesting indicators into Cortex XSOAR, you can create indicators, add indicators, extract indicators, export indicators, etc. If you have a TIM license you can use Threat Intel Reports and use the Unit 42 feature.

The Threat Intel page displays a table or summary view of all indicators, and enables you to perform several indicator actions. If you do not have a TIM license, the page is called Indicators.

You can perform the following actions:

Action	Description
View and take action on an indicator	Click on an indicator to view and take action on indicator. You can view in detail the verdict, relationships, timeline, enrich indicators, add tags, etc. By default, when editing the following inline values in an incident/indicator, the changes are not saved until you confirm your changes (clicking the checkmark icon in the value field). Dropdown values, such as Owner, Severity, etc. Text values, such as Asset ID. (You can only edit when you click the pencil in the value field). These icons are designed to let you have an additional level of security before you make changes to the fields in incidents/indicators. To change this default behavior, set the `inline.edit.on.blur` server configuration to `true` to enable you to make changes to the inline fields without clicking the checkmark. The changes are automatically saved when clicking anywhere on the page or when navigating to another page. For text values you can also click anywhere in the value field to edit.
Create a new indicator	Manually create a new indicator in the system.
Create an incident	Create an incident from the selected indicators and populate relevant incident fields with indicator data.
Edit	Edit a single indicator or select multiple indicators to perform a bulk edit.
Delete and Exclude	Delete and exclude one or more indicators from all indicator types or from a subset of indicator types. If you select the Do not add to exclusion list checkbox, the selected indicators are only deleted.

You can search for indicators using any of the available search fields. This is a partial list of the available search fields.

`type`	The type of the indicator, such as File, Email, etc.
`verdict`	The reputation of the indicator: Malicious Suspicious Benign Unknown
