The Services Config view > Data Sources tab of an ESA service enables you to configure the sources that ESA uses to analyze data. An ESA service ingests data from Concentrators to detect incidents and alert analysts to potential threats.

Workflow

This workflow shows the overall process for configuring ESA. It also shows where configuring data sources is located in the process.

In NetWitness 11.2 and earlier, ESA has two services, the Event Stream Analysis service (ESA Correlation Rules) and the Event Stream Analytics Server service (ESA Analytics). The first four procedures shown pertain to configuring the Event Stream Analysis service:

(Optional) Create and Deploy ESA Analytics Mappings
