Schema: User Activity Tables

This chapter contains information on the schema and supported joins for user activity and identity events. The Secure Firewall can detect user activity on your network by tracking various types of user logins, including LDAP, POP3, IMAP, SMTP, AIM, and SIP.

For more information, see the sections listed in the following table.

Table 8-1 Schema for User Identity Tables
See...	For the table that stores information on...	Version
discovered_users	Information about the users detected by the system.	5.0+
user_discovery_event	User discovery events, which communicate the details of user activity on your network.	5.0+
user_ioc_state	Stores compromise state for users.	6.2+

discovered_users

The discovered_users table contains detailed information about each user detected by the system.

The discovered_users table supersedes the deprecated rua_user table starting with Version 5.0 of the Secure Firewall.

For more information, see the following sections:

discovered_users Fields

The following table describes the fields you can access in the discovered_users table.

Table 8-2 discovered_users Fields
Field	Description
`dept`	The department of the user.
`email`	The email address for the user.
`first_name`	The first name for the user.
`ip_address`	This field has been deprecated and returns `null` for all queries.
`ipaddr`	A binary representation of the IPv4 or IPv6 address for the host where the user login was detected.
`last_name`	The last name for the user.
`last_seen_sec`	The UNIX timestamp of the date and time the system last reported a login for the user.
`last_updated_sec`	The UNIX timestamp of the date and time the user’s information was last updated.
`name`	The name for the user.
`phone`	The phone number for the user.
`rna_service`	Field deprecated in Version 5.0. Returns `null` for all queries.
`user_id`	The internal identification number of the user who last logged onto the host.

discovered_users Joins

The following table describes the joins you can perform on the rua_user table.

Table 8-3 discovered_users Joins
You can left join on this field...	With other tables that have join type of...
`user_id`	`user_discovery_event. user_id user_ipaddr_history. user_id user_ioc_state. user_id`

discovered_users Sample Query

The following query returns up to 25 discovered user records that were generated since a specified date and time.

SELECT user_id, ip_address, email, name, last_seen_sec, last_updated_sec

FROM discovered_users

WHERE last_seen_sec >= UNIX_TIMESTAMP("2011-10-01 00:00:00")

LIMIT 0, 25;

user_discovery_event

The user_discovery_event table contains a record for each user discovery event.

Note that starting in Version 5.0, the Secure Firewall records the detection of user activity at the managed device level, no longer by detection engine. The detection_engine_name and detection_engine_uuid fields in this table have been replaced by the sensor_name and sensor_uuid fields respectively. Queries on these fields will return information about the managed device that generated the user discovery event.

For more information, see the following sections:
