About Object Details

THREATQ REQUIRED PERMISSIONS

Default ThreatQ Role: Administrative, Maintenance, or Primary Contributor
Custom Role - Action Permissions: Objects & Context - Individual Object Context & Actions

You can click on an object within the ThreatQ application to access its details page. The Object Details page provides you with an in-depth look at an individual object. You can enter comments for others to view, link related objects, and view an audit log of all activity associated with the object.

Specific objects, such as Indicators, display additional information such as score, and expiration data.

Relationship Limits

If an object has more than 10,000 relationships from the same source, the Relationship Limit Reached banner is displayed at the top of the object details page until you close by clicking the X in the upper right corner or until you resolve the relationship limit issue.

In addition, the object’s Sources pane displays a relationship limit badge with a tooltip listing the source that exceeded the limit. Within the tooltip, you can click the source to access a Threat Library view filtered by the related to (object name) and relationship criteria (offending source).
