Kaspersky Anti Targeted Attack

Kaspersky Anti Targeted Attack Platform (KATA) events — network-level threat detection appliance logs covering file analysis from web and mail traffic, endpoint file submissions, IDS alerts, URL reputation verdicts, DNS query inspection, IOC scanning results, TAA (Targeted Attack Analyzer) detections, and sensor heartbeat status in ECS-compatible JSON format.

Quick Start

Realism Features

  • Sandbox verdicts with static and dynamic analysis scores for file detections
  • IDS alerts with Suricata-compatible signature IDs and CVE references
  • IOC scanning results with hash, IP, and domain indicator types from threat feeds
  • TAA detections with MITRE ATT&CK technique IDs and kill chain phases
  • DNS query inspection with resolved IP addresses and domain reputation categories
  • Sensor heartbeat with component health, throughput metrics, and version info
  • CSV-sampled internal host pool with correlated hostname, IP, and OS fields
