    Cognito Sensor

    The Cognito Sensor is a component of the Cognito Platform. The Sensor is deployed in the customer's VPC. It receives network traffic from VPC traffic mirrors or VxLAN based packet brokers, then extracts session metadata and sends the metadata to the Cognito Brain which may be on-premise or in the cloud.

    CloudFormation Template (CFT)

    AWS CloudFormation templates are JSON or YAML-formatted text files that simplify provisioning and management on AWS. The templates describe the service or application architecture you want to deploy, and AWS CloudFormation uses those templates to provision and configure the required services (such as Amazon EC2 instances or Amazon RDS DB instances). The deployed application and associated resources are called a "stack."

    Version release notes

    This release is for customers with existing Cognito Brain instances running version 8.7 and above. Please upgrade Brain instances to version 8.7 before continuing.

    Additional details

    Usage instructions

    Verify your Cognito Brain is running version 7.8 or higher. Retrieve the IP Address of your Cognito Brain and the Sensor Registration Token from the Settings page under the Sensor section. Deploy Cognito Sensor from AWS Marketplace, and provide the IP address of the Cognito Brain and the Sensor Registration token. The Sensor's mgtSubnet needs access to ports 22 and 443 on the Cognito Brain. After the instance launches, it will attempt to pair with the Brain IP provided, following the normal pairing procedure. Log in to the Cognito Brain, browse to Manage page, and select the Sensor tab. Find the newly "Available" Sensor and select Pair. See the "Resources" section in the Cognito Brain UI for a copy of the complete setup documentation.

    What do you like best about the product?
    Vectra finds what other controls miss. It is used to help with network visibility and integrates great with Splunk. We have passed every pen test since Vectra was deployed. The company has really listened to the customers and made big improvements over the last three years.
    What do you dislike about the product?
    It can get expensive if you have a lot of offices. The appliances are not cheap so if you have a bunch of smaller offices it can start to add up.
    What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
    Network visibility in east-west traffic is our primary use. Because we ingest the data in Splunk it is also used to evaluate incidents and help make decisions on incident prioritization.
    Recommendations to others considering the product:
    Vectra helps IR teams with prioritizing events. It can take some time to get everything reporting correctly so use the Vectra resources to help create the rules and whitelisting events is recommended.
