Log sources and channels
Exactly as MITRE states them in x_mitre_log_source_references. Where a channel is vague, it is vague in the source; kevmap does not tidy it.
| Log source | Channel | Data component |
|---|---|---|
| macos:unifiedlog | Configuration profile modified or new profile installed | DC0038 Application Log Content |
| NSM:Flow | TLS downgrade or inconsistent DNS answers | DC0085 Network Traffic Content |
Mutable elements
Parameters MITRE marks as environment-specific. These are the knobs you are expected to tune; they are why an analytic is not a rule.
| Field | Description |
|---|---|
ProfileIdentifiers | Known good vs suspicious configuration profiles per enterprise baseline. |
TLSVersionThreshold | Minimum TLS version accepted in network traffic inspection. |
