CIM Data Model Mapping

The Splunk Common Information Model (CIM) is installed with an add-on and adds a set of data models that allow data normalization to simplify search.

The CIM contains a number of standard data models that can be used for search. Each of them has predefined set of standard fields common for different data sources.

Netwrix Auditor add-on for Splunk will map some of the Activity Records that match certain scenario to the respective CIM data models.
