Add Entries to Global Security Intelligence Lists

When reviewing events and dashboards, you can instantly block future traffic involving IP addresses, domains, and URLs that appear in those events by adding them to a predefined Block list.

Similarly, if Security Intelligence is blocking traffic that you want evaluated by threat detection processes subsequent to Security Intelligence blocking, you can add IP addresses, domains, and URLs from events to a predefined Do Not Block list.

Traffic is evaluated against entries on these lists during the Security Intelligence phase of threat detection.

For more information about these lists, see Global and Domain Security Intelligence Lists.

Before you begin

Because adding an entry to a Security Intelligence list affects access control, you must have one of the following user roles:

  • Administrator

  • A combination of roles: Network Admin or Access Admin, plus Security Analyst and Security Approver

  • A custom role with both Modify Access Control Policy and Deploy Configuration to Devices permissions

If appropriate, verify that these lists are used in the policies in which you expect them to be used.

Procedure


Step 1

Navigate to an event that includes an IP address, domain, or URL that you want to always block using Security Intelligence, or exempt from Security Intelligence blocking.
