How to Configure User Import Methods (LDAP, Active Directory, Reference Table, CSV) in QRadar User Behavior Analytics

Troubleshooting


Problem

The User Import function of User Behavior Analytics (UBA) allows administrators to import and predefine users to be monitored within the application. There are various methods available for importing these users: LDAP or Active Directory query, QRadar reference table, and CSV file. With these imported users, administrators can coalesce multiple usernames to a single user, and configure display information to provide extra context when you monitor system activity. This document summarizes the capabilities of this function, and provides some suggestions for the initial configuration.
