MITRE ATT&CK

MITRE ATT&CK

MITRE ATT&CK is a knowledge base of threat behaviors relied upon by security professionals worldwide. The Network Insights > MITRE ATT&CK page tracks the number of events that occurred for each MITRE attack tactics category.

The dashboard displays the detection by behavior (behavioral and non-behavioral) and by technique (primary and secondary).

  • The Primary technique is what is used to detect the behavior.
  • The Secondary technique is not always related to what is seen on the network, but is related to the threat in general. The secondary technique will not be displayed in some instances.

The column headers in the MITRE ATT&CK page are tactics, and the tiles within these columns are the relevant techniques.

To view the secondary technique, click the vertical bars at right side of the tile.

Event handler coverage

When Show All is selected, the MITRE ATT&CK technique with FortiNDR coverage appears as a blue block. When a MITRE ATT&CK technique detection has been triggered, the technique block will display a shield icon.

When Show Coverage is selected, the technique blocks with no FortiNDR coverage are hidden so the matrix can fit the page. In this view, dark blue blocks represent the MITRE techniques detection were triggered.
