Thank you for taking the time to answer with examples Pedro!

One last related question if ya don,t mind..?     I am trying to wrap
my head around a rule firing off after a simple bit of correlation.
Is it possible?  I know this is the job of the SIEM, but I am trying
to get the SIEM to only correlate fired upon alerts that are qualified
by a mechanism first. So, for example, I would like a rule to fire on
event 4567 that was followed by 4523 then followed by 4625 between 1
and 50 times, then a 4624... (when all these things match the rule
fires)

I see that rules have the ability of setting frequency and time frame,
which would help me, though I am at a loss for the remainder of my
needs.  Seems an external script may be needed along with a sort of
temporary repository. ( I may be over thinking this and mucking it up
)


What could you suggest?


V/R,
Rob B.
